New Resource
Hodie quidam me certiorem fecit nouuam editionem factam esse quae catichismum minorem M. Lutheri latine continet cum adnotationibus grammaticis uocabulorumque. Videtur praefatio Lutheri deesse, quod mea quidem sententia tristissimum est, reliqua autem manga cum laude accipienda sunt. Quamquam textus Latinus minoris catechismi facile inueniri potest, tamen non dubito quin adnotationes huius bellae editionis sint auxilio tironibus Latinae linguae atque nescientibus quomodo saeculo XVI latine dictum sit.
Today I was made aware of a new resource for the Small Catechism in Latin. It’s a new edition of the Catechismus Minor with notes for grammar and vocabulary aid. It appears to be lacking Luther’s preface, (which is a shame I think), yet otherwise is a most praiseworthy effort. Though the Latin text of the SC is readily available, the commentary offered in this nice edition will no doubt be of use to new students of Latin or those unfamiliar with 16th century Latin.
Thanks for the note. That link doesn’t seem to work, though. Would you mind double-checking it?
Oops. It should work now.
