Latin Alive: The Survival of Latin in English and Romance LanguagesLatin Alive: The Survival of Latin in English and Romance Languages

In Latin Alive, Joseph Solodow tells the story of how Latin developed into modern French, Spanish, and Italian, and deeply affected English as well. Offering a gripping narrative of language change, Solodow charts Latin's course from classical times to the modern era, with focus on the first millennium of the Common Era.
