Latin stylistic devices

Alliteration, anaphora, asyndeton, climax, polyptoton... Even in middle school, Latin classes are not just about translating a text into German, but also about its interpretation. This volume brings together the stylistic devices that frequently appear in Latin texts: for each one, there is a brief definition, a particularly catchy German example, and example sentences from school authors along with their translations. The alphabetical arrangement makes it easy to look things up, a reference list directs you to authors and works, and cross-references to similar stylistic devices facilitate learning.
