Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a comprehensive analysis of the various ways in which the Latin negative prohibitive ne with the perfect subjunctive was used throughout Latin literary history. The author has compiled an exhaustive collection of examples of this construction from the earliest Latin texts through the Augustan period. These examples are classified and examined in detail, revealing subtle but significant differences in meaning and usage between the perfect and present tenses of the subjunctive in prohibitions, as well as providing valuable insights into the evolution of Latin syntax. The author argues that the perfect tense was reserved for prohibitions that are prompted by uncontrollable emotion or that are intended to be as vigorous as possible, either from some serious motive or merely as a bit of familiar pleasantry. This study is an essential resource for scholars and students of Latin language and literature, offering a deeper understanding of the nuances of Latin grammar and the development of its literary expression. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781332121359_0
