Excerpt from Case Constructions of Similis and Its Compounds: A Dissertation Submitted to the Board of University Studies of the Johns Hopkins University in Conformity With the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy

The literature of the subject of the case constructions of simile's and its compounds is not extensive. Most of the grammars dis miss the matter in a few words. Kuhner, 2 - 328, and Bennett, App. To Latin Grammar 323 (cf. Remarks on page 139 of Teach ing of Latin and Greek in the Secondary Schools, by Bennett and Bristol), have notes of some length. Haase, Note 550 to Reisig' treats the subject With considerable fullness and in his Vorle sungen uber lateinische Sprachwissenschaft 2, 134 - 142 a still more extended discussion is found. Madvig, Cic. De Fin. 5 - 12, deals With the subject for Cicero mainly, and Ritschl, Op. 2 - 570 (rh. M. 7 - 583) and 579 (rh. M. 8 discusses it for Plautus. Also in Op. 3 - 261 (cf. Suet. Reliqq. Reifi'erscheid 522) he treats it for the fragments of the early poets. References of less im portance are given as occasion requires.
