About this book
Latin literature is given less than four centuries in this history by R. W. Browne, professor of classical literature at King's College, London. He dates its start to about two and a half centuries before Christ, when conquest brought Rome into contact with Greek learning, and its end to the years before the Antonines. The study begins with the Latin language and the dialects that formed it, then considers why the Roman habit of war and public service left writers little encouragement under the Republic. It was printed in Philadelphia in 1853.
