Sinopse

In 1964-65, the Roman Catholic Church brutally and almost universally abandoned the Latin language. This sparked a violent polemic in some places, with often superficial arguments.áAt that point, a French writer published a far-reaching study. The historian Marie-Madeleine Martin, former student of the Ecole des Chartes and first female winner of the Grand Prix Gobert dâÇÖHistoire, developed the following argument:á'We maintain that in this instance, the debate extends to every part of society, and beyond the purely religious terrain. It concerns the history of the world because RomeâÇÖs least contested glory is its major contribution to universal civilization. Rome was not a nation, or did not remain as one for long. The empire it established reigned over East and West. Rome found the means to enable diverse peoples and civilizations to live together, thereby providing an enduring message which is valid for every human city.'á'In 1910 the great Italian writer Guglielmo Ferrero...noted: âÇÖRomeâÇÖs history, and hers alone, is universal, which is why she cannot be similar to dead empires.âÇÖ' áCertain chapters of Immortal Latin will arouse intense surprise in the reader:·ááááááááthe demonstration of RomeâÇÖs role in what is called the primitive Greek church,·ááááááááa completely new painting style, traced back to the Renaissance·áááááááábeautiful seventeenth-century European frescos ·ááááááááthe revelation of an attempted French liturgy on the eve of the French Revolution·ááááááááceaseless attacks against Latin in the last three centuries·ááááááááthe demonstration of LatinâÇÖs character of UNIVERSALITY
