A two-volume collection, published in 1897 with a grammar and glossary, of the remains of Oscan, Umbrian and other Italic dialects.

This dictionary forms part of the project Indo-European Etymological Dictionary, which was initiated by Robert Beekes and Alexander Lubotsky in 1991. The aim of the project is to compile a new and comprehensive etymological dictionary of the inherited vocabulary attested in the Indo-European languages, replacing the now outdated dictionary of Pokorny (1959).

This Cambridge history is the definitive guide to the comparative history of the Romance languages. Volume I is organized around the two key recurrent themes of persistence (structural inheritance and continuity from Latin) and innovation (structural change and loss in Romance).

This book makes recent scholarship on the Italic people of fourth-century BC Apulia available to English-speaking audiences.
