The Quantitative Reading of Latin Poetry is a book written by Charles Edwin Bennett and first published in 1899. The book is a guide for students of Latin poetry who want to understand the meter and rhythm of the language. Bennett's approach is quantitative, meaning that he focuses on the length of syllables and the patterns they form in a line of verse. He explains the rules of Latin meter and provides examples from the works of poets such as Virgil, Horace, and Ovid. The book is intended for advanced students of Latin who have already mastered the basics of grammar and vocabulary. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the technical aspects of Latin poetry and the art of reading it aloud.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
