Description

Product Description Taking an approach that combines philological, linguistic, and ritual analysis, Michael Weiss sheds light on many obscure interpretive cruces and also constructs a coherent theory of the entire ritual performance described on Tables III and IV of the Tabulae Iguvinae. From the Back Cover The Iguvine Tables ("Tabulae Iguvinae") are among the most invaluable documents of Italic linguistics and religion. Seven bronze tablets discovered in 1444 in the Umbrian town of Gubbio (ancient Iguvium), they record the rites and sacral laws of a priestly brotherhood, the Fratres Atiedii, with a degree of detail unparalleled elsewhere in ancient Italy. Taking an interdisciplinary approach that combines philological and linguistic, as well as ritual analysis, Michael Weiss not only addresses the many interpretive cruces that have puzzled scholars for a century and a half, but also constructs a coherent theory of the entire ritual performance described on Tables III and IV. In addition, Weiss sheds light on many questions of Roman ritual practice and places the Iguvine Tables in their broader Italic and Indo-European contexts. About the Author Michael Weiss, Ph.D. (1993) in Linguistics, Cornell University, is currently a Professor of Linguistics at Cornell University. He has taught in the Classics departments at Yale and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He has published articles on various aspects of Indo-European, Greek, and Latin linguistics. He is the author of An Outline of the Historical and Comparative Grammar of Latin (Beech Stave, 2009).
