Meminisse Iuvabit .  Antologia della Letteratura Latina dalle origini a Tertulliano

An Anthology of Latin Literature aims to satisfy institutionally educational needs, but also, more broadly, cultural ones. Meminisse iuvabit offers a wide range of pieces taken from the works of Latinity (with essential historical-literary profiles of the authors), not only the best known, but also and above all the less known, even the most peregrine, able to solicit debate on the piano literary, historical-political, sociological, anthropological. These pages offer the living, fascinating and stimulating testimony of a world, yes, for a large part different from ours, but also, and perhaps precisely because of this, capable of providing many suggestions to us, men of our time, ready to capture the secrets of an existential experience that converts to reflection, encouraging inner growth.
