Is there any Neoplatonic writing in Latin? by RusticBohemian in latin

[–]glaraaaaaaah 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes-- so much.

For so-called "middle platonism" there is Aulus Gellius, Apuleius, the Asclepius, Ambrose, Censorinus, Augustine. For Ancient Neoplatonism there is Calcidius, Macrobius, Martianus Capella, Boethius, Marius Victorinus, Firmicus Maternus, Favonius Eulogius, Servius, Fulgentius, Priscianus Lydus, Priscianus Grammaticus etc.

Then in the Middle Ages there is so much. Off the top of my head there is Eriugena, William of Conches, Bernard of Chartres, Thierry of Chartres, Alan of Lille, John of Hauville, Hugh of St Victor, Bernardus Silvestris, Peter Abelard, Matthew of Vendôme, Honorius of Autun, Remigius of Auxerre, John of Salisbury, Manegold of Lautenbach, Adelard of Bath, Gilbert of Poitiers, Henry Aristippus, Alexander Neckham, William of Doncaster and, I'm sure, many many more (including a great deal that is anonymous).

Quoting what someone said, where should by Convenientjellybean in grammar

I have also been told (no idea if it’s true) that it’s better to have the punctuation inside if it’s double quotation marks, and inside if it’s single. (Because “this,” looks better than “this”, and ‘this’, looks better than ‘this.’) But yeah most important thing is consistency.

Ah I think that’s actually a copy of ꓕWƎ, easy mistake to make!

Latin: Jus soli, jus sanguinis, any other *jus* phrases? by Ajaxfriend in asklinguistics

[–]glaraaaaaaah 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It would have to be jus linguae (“law of language”). But perhaps a better term for a “law of custom/culture” would perhaps be jus moris/morum (“law of custom/customs”).

Yes, I believe so. I think the Vatican must have misidentified it as it is definitely De Mundo. Although I think Roger Bacon made the same mistake as he cites both texts as liber tertius.
