This monograph on the correspondence between Paul and Seneca contains facsimile reproductions of the fourteen letters. The delineations are based on two Latin manuscripts of the mid-9th century. Each reader, then, is able to arrive at an independent judgment regarding the aesthetics of these penmanship examples from the Middle Ages. Scriptural authorities, both in the 19th and 20th centuries, have regarded A. D. 61 as the year of Paul's arrival in Rome for his trial before Nero. The correspondence is dated from that time forward until A. D. 65, when both Paul and Seneca died under the hand of Nero.

This translation contains a facing page reproduction of the the typeset 1493 edition (Venice, Hermolaus Barbatus) of Mela's work. The Latin text casts considerable light on the Roman mind of the 1st century A.D.

A chronological account of the years and the events of the Roman Commonwealth from the founding of the city in 753 B.C. to the Code of Justinian in A.D. 534. The yearly listings are printed in bold numerals and serve as a rapid locator for the searcher. The annual headnotes contain citations that attach the entry to supporting vouchers in classical literature. Yet, the binding theme of this work is the universal magnetism of the Roman language. No age – whether the Regal Period of the kings or the Republican Period of the consuls or the Imperial Period of the emperors – stood outside the tidal draw of Lingus Latina.

This monograph establishes the directional bearing which Latin has given to the Church through each successive age from the 1st century to the 20th. Lingua Latina has served as nothing less than the transport vehicle of Christianity itself. So densely has history woven the strands of Latin into the texture of Christianity, that any attempt to detach the language is to remove the backing from the tapestry. The conclusion of the monograph will indicate that any attempt to detach the faith from this groundline, so historically valid, would amount to nothing less than a departure of the Church from its magnetic north.
