Reviews
" Et Cetera is my Roman Empire. Literally. You would think a reference book of Latin phrases could not possibly make you cry. You would be wrong. Fresh, funny, and poignant [...] each lovingly illustrated phrase becomes a portal to a Rome we don't often see." (Eunice Hong, author of Memento Mori: A Novel), "A fascinating and beautiful introduction to Latin, infused with history and literature from the ancient world [...] it will intrigue even the staunchest of hellenophiles (like me)." (Liv Albert, creator of the Let's Talk About Myths, Baby! Podcast), "...a refreshing dusting-off of the genre of classical phrase compendiums, sure to appeal to a wide range of curious readers [...] Clearly a work of love, written by one of a new breed of classicists, this is a delightful following of Horace's inducement to make writing ' dulce et utile ,' both enjoyable and instructive--but you knew that, didn't you?" (Billy Collins, New York Times bestselling author and former U.S. Poet Laureate)

Synopsis
A USA TODAY BESTSELLER AN NPR "BOOK WE LOVE" FOR SUMMER 2024 A gorgeously illustrated guide to memorable Latin phrases, including famous quotations on love, death, nature, politics, and more. Latin may be a "dead" language, but it's all around us--in science, philosophy, religion, and literature. From " carpe diem " to the more obscure " alea iacta est ," classicist Maia Lee-Chin examines the deeper meanings of many Latin phrases still in use--as well as those lost to the ages. Illustrated in artist Marta Bertello's haunting style, this unique compendium illuminates ancient Roman history and culture like never before.

- c***t (921)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (#356798982438)
