Book Description
Excerpt from A Smaller Classical Dictionary One innovation I should like to Call attention to. In the older edition of Smith's Dictionary the names of Greek gods were generally followed by then (supposed)' La'tin equivalents; for; until the last few years', it' was the usual practice to call' Greek' 'go'ds by Latin names. But Jupiter, though akin to, is not the same as Zeus; Minerva is'iin no wise Athena. A still Worse danger, however in this indefensible practice, lies 111 the: fact that We begin to Invest Greek 'gods' with Latin (or Alex andrian) natures'! Hence the need Of putting -a stop to a method of nomenclature that 13 fertile Only in m1sconception. I cannot h-ope to' have eradicated all errors from the book, or' to have included everything that 'every man' might de siderate; but, within it's modest limits I trust' this weli - known and valued Dictionary will, in its new and improved shape, be useful and not misleading.
