longshotgene Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 Does anyone know where it is mentioned in a book the number of surviving Classical Latin texts still in existence? I need to find this one fact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryaxis Hecatee Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 a book giving the exact number I don't know, maybe in the oxford classical dictionnary, otherwise you may simply want to take a look at the site of the PHI project since they've put many ancient texts on digitalised support... Or maybe you could find the information on Perseus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Octavius Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 B.H., would you please supply the URL's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryaxis Hecatee Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 About PHI : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packard_Humanities_Institute, I don't have any other link currently available but information should not be too hard to find. I don't know if their latin database has been put online though, the only version I know is the cd-rom version.

Bryaxis Hecatee Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 my pleasure. I'm currently working on a database on ressources about antiquity on the web, already got around one hundred links even if they mostly concern ( greek ) warfare and digitalisation of data on the classical world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Paulinus Maximus Posted May 3, 2008 Report Share Posted May 3, 2008 I always seem to have trouble loading Perseus. It seems very problematic to me. Does anybody else have any bother with Perseus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's any consolation, I've just tried to load up the home page and failed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
