About this book
Frank Frost Abbott approaches ancient Rome through ordinary people's language and social life. His opening discussion asks how Latin spread beyond its original territory, comparing linguistic change with political conquest. Inscriptions, regional differences and the languages of neighboring communities help explain a process that military power alone does not fully account for.
