History of Roman Literature from its Earliest Period to the Augustan Age. Vol. II

by John Colin Dunlop

*Funccius.—De Origine et Pueritiâ, De Adolescentiâ, Virili Ætate, et Senectute Linguæ Latinæ. Frankfort, 1720.

This is one of the most learned and valuable works extant on the subject of Latin literature. In the first tract, De Pueritiâ, the author chiefly treats of the origin and progress of the Roman language.

*Gaudentius Paganinus.—De Philosophiæ ap. Romanos Ortu et Progressu. Pisa, 1643, 4.

A very dull and imperfect account of the state of philosophy among the Romans, from the earliest periods to the time of Boethius.

*Hankius. (Mart.)—De Romanarum Rerum Scriptoribus. Lips. 1687. 4to.

The first part of this work contains a succinct account of the ancient Roman Annalists and Historians. The latter part relates to modern writers who treated of Roman affairs.

*Harles. (Th. Christ.)—Introductio in Notitiam Literaturæ Romanæ, imprimis Scriptorum Latinorum. Noriberg. 1781. 2 Tom. 8vo.

This work of Harles, as far as it extends, is written on the same plan, and is much of the same description, as the Bibliotheca of Fabricius. It is not continued farther, however, than the Augustan age inclusive.

*Harles. (Th. Christ.)—Brevior Notitia Literaturæ Romanæ, imprimis Scriptorum Latinorum. Lips. 1788. 1 Tom. 8vo.

*Harles. (Th. Christ.)—Supplementa ad Breviorem Notitiam Literaturæ Romanæ. Lips. 1788. 2 Tom. 8vo.
