Book Overview

The Sequence of Tenses in Plautus is a scholarly work written by Edward Hoch Heffner and originally published in 1917. The book explores the use of tenses in the plays of the ancient Roman playwright Plautus, with a particular focus on the way in which Plautus uses different tenses to convey meaning and create dramatic effect. Heffner examines the grammatical and syntactical structures of Plautus' plays, analyzing the use of tense in relation to other elements of language such as mood, voice, and aspect. The book is aimed at scholars and students of Latin literature, and provides a detailed and comprehensive analysis of the use of tense in Plautus' work. It is considered an important contribution to the field of Latin linguistics and literary criticism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
