Elementary Latin Dictionary

Description

With a vocabulary extended to include all words used by Catullus, Tibullus, Propertius, and Tacitus, as well as those used by Terence, Caesar, Sallust, Cicero, Livy, Nepos, Virgil, Horace, Ovid, Juvenal, Phaedrus, and Curtius, this abridgement of Lewis's Latin Dictionary for Schools excludes proper names and detailed references to books and passages, and limits illustrative citations.

Reviews

"The only authoritative dictionary of Classical Latin available in abridged form; the only Latin dictionary suitable for undergraduates at all levels; and the only one that will not lead students astray with false translations because it gives precise contexts."--John A. Stevens, East Carolina University
