Addresses to and from Non-HumansHow did Romans address their children, their parents, their slaves and their patrons? This text questions a body of addresses spanning four centuries and drawn from a variety of sources.How did Romans address their children, their parents, their slaves, and their patrons? When one Roman called another 'dearest', 'master', 'brother', 'human being', 'executioner', or 'soft little cheese', what did these terms really mean and why? This book brings to bear on such questions a corpus of 15,441 addresses spanning four centuries, drawn from literary prose, poetry, letters, inscriptions, ostraca, and papyri and analysed during recent work in sociolinguistics. The results offer new insights into Roman culture and shed a fresh light on the interpretation of numerous passages in literature. A glossary of the 500 most common addresses and quick-reference tables explaining the rules of usage make this book a valuable resource for Latin teachers and all active users of the language, while the evidence for the investigations behind these conclusions will fascinate scholars and laymen alike. Original, jargon-free, and highly readable, this work will be enjoyed even by those with no prior knowledge of Latin.Latin languageAddress, Forms ofLatin languageSocial aspectsRomeSocial interactionRomeForms of addressRomeNames, PersonalRomeNames, LatinElectronic books.Latin languageAddress, Forms of.Latin languageSocial aspectsSocial interactionForms of addressNames, PersonalNames, Latin.395.40937Dickey Eleanor446540MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910453201403321Latin forms of address906009UNINA
