Adopting a diachronic perspective which spans from the Middle Ages to the Modern Age, the conference and its proceedings have paid special attention to texts related to Africa and Asia. The richness of literary genres as well as the dialogue between the Humanities and hard sciences characterize this volume. Students of Classics will find reflections on the role of Latin in the humanistic and missionary traditions, whereas historians of ideas and historians of religions will be able to pinpoint key moments in the use of Latin language and culture in Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Ethiopian contexts. This volume can also be of interest to people working on Digital Humanities and computational linguistics in Latin language, and it represents a novelty on the world scene, along the lines of the previous Global Latin I Conference, which was yet again held in Siena in 2019. 410 0$aRoma Sinica Series 606 $aFOREIGN LANGUAGE STUDY / Ancient Languages (see also Latin)$2bisacsh 610 $aLatin. 610 $aculture. 610 $aglobalisation. 610 $ascience. 615 7$aFOREIGN LANGUAGE STUDY / Ancient Languages (see also Latin). 676 $a306.44271 700 $aDella Calce$b Elisa$01725665 701 $aMocella$b Paola$01794699 701 $aMollea$b Simone$01794700 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996647822603316 996 $aNew Perspectives in Global Latin$94335605 997 $aUNISA
