Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Latin Inscriptions
It has been generally recognized by scholars of the present day that a knowledge of epigraphy forms an essential part of the equipment of a teacher of the classics, and that the subject itself has become so important as to justify its introduction, in elementary form at least, into the curriculum of undergraduate studies. Notwithstanding this general recognition, however, no work in the English language which would serve as an introduction to the study of Latin inscriptions has up to the present time been published. It is to supply this want that the following pages have been written.
The purpose determining the plan of the work has been to combine abundant introductory and explanatory matter with numerous examples for illustration and for practice in reading. The inscriptions, with the single exception of those from movable articles, have been printed in the type ordinarily used for Latin texts, since this form has been considered more satisfactory than any attempt at a typographical imitation of the original letters. Numerous photographic reproductions have been made from the fac-similes of Ritschl's Priscae Latinitatis Monumenta Epigraphica and from the exempla in Hübner's Exempla Scripturae Epigraphicae, in order to impress in some degree upon the student the original form and appearance of the inscription.
The debt of the author to the works of other writers is of necessity very great.
