Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the development of Latin prose rhythm after its origins with Greek sophists. The author traces the practice from its adoption by Roman orators to its standardization by medieval papal scribes, and on through its subsequent decline. The book is a comprehensive study of the evolution of Latin prose rhythm across history, with a particular focus on the medieval period and the influence of accent on earlier prose. The author analyzes the theories and rules that governed the use of rhythmic clausulae, the different forms they took, and the ways in which they were employed by writers from Cicero to Dante. A fascinating and scholarly work, this book will be of great interest to students and scholars of Latin literature, medieval studies, and the history of rhetoric. It sheds new light on the complex and subtle art of Latin prose composition and offers a deeper understanding of the ways in which language, rhythm, and meaning have shaped the development of written communication.
