The "La scuola di Pitagora" publishing house, with the patronage of the Italian institute for philosophical studies, offers to Latin students and scholars an anastatic reprint of the Novus linguae et eruditionis Romanae thesaurus by Johann Matthias Gesner (1691-1761): this classical lexicon of the Latin language will therefore now be accessible to all.
Johann Matthias Gesner, librarian and professor of rhetoric at the Göttingen university, increased, with his many additions and the entries arranged in alphabetical order, the classical work, first published in 1531, that we owe to the great learning of Robert I Estienne, or Stephanus (1503-59), the founder of the famous family of French humanists: the "Thesaurus linguae Latinae".
An unsurpassed tool, for today's humanists no less than for those of the past centuries.
An enormous bulk of examples taken from Latin authors, accurately interpreted by one of the greatest classical philologists of all times.
A clear and elegant look.
A book for all those who have the great tradition of humanism at heart.
The main features of the work :
- 2 volumes;
- an elegant and manageable edition (the size of the book is 22 x 32 centimetres);
- cloth binding;
- golden characters on the spine;
- all the entries are also translated into Greek;
- an appendix contains a rich etymological index of the Latin language;
- with a new preface by Oleg Nikitinski;
- many annotations not only by Gesner himself, but also by the most conspicuous classical scholars from the XV to the XVIII centuries;
- this dictionary records some classical-Latin words that one cannot find in any other Latin lexicon.Source : La scuola di Pitagora editrice
