Publisher's Synopsis

""A Dictionary of Epithets"" is a reference book that was first published in 1856. Written by Charles Duke Yonge, it is an appendix to the Latin Gradus, meaning that it is intended to be used alongside a Latin dictionary or other Latin reference materials. The book is organized according to the English meanings of the epithets, which are descriptive words or phrases used to characterize a person, place, or thing. The epithets are classified into various categories, such as those related to size, color, age, or personality traits. Each entry includes the English meaning of the epithet, as well as its Latin equivalent and any relevant notes or examples of usage. The book is intended for students of Latin, as well as anyone interested in expanding their vocabulary or improving their understanding of the language.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
