Latest on the Grammaticus blog❗

An analysis of Catullus 46 - a delightful 1st century BC Latin poem about the arrival of spring and the excitement of travel.

If your Latin is a bit rusty or you happen to be a Latin learner, below the poem you’ll find a detailed, verse-by-verse word analysis, along with an English translation.

At the very end of the post there are a few links to additional resources on Catullus, and the context of this particular poem.

Just out of curiosity, is there any Mastodon server where Latin is the main language of communication? Thank you.

Per curiositatem modo, ecqui servus Mastodontis est in quo Latina lingua praecipua commercii est? Gratias vobis ago.

Continued thread

I suggested that the decline in Gaulish writing in the 1st c CE cannot necessarily be seen as a decline in language vibrancy, comparing the status of other nonliterate indigenous languages in the Roman empire.

But I left the question open on what the ‘psychological shift’ may have been for those literate Gaulish speakers who stopped seeing a purpose in writing the language during the early Roman principate.

Anyone here have any suggestions?

Despite what I post on this platform, my life is not all Basset Hounds and gardening. (Well, the Basset Hound does often manage to make my life entirely about him.)

I still occasionally carry out some academic research, and I spoke yesterday to the Changelings linguistics group here at Ohio State on the subject of ‘Gaulish literacy’.

In looking at the decline in surviving writing in Gaulish during the 1st c CE, I worked from Roman historian Ramsay MacMullen’s famous 1982 essay on ‘The epigraphic habit in the Roman empire’, where Ramsay attempted to explain the decline in Latin epigraphy from the mid 3rd c CE as being connected to ‘some very broad psychological shift’.
