where your Latin text comes from perhaps we can help you identify
it.

passage of Latin that is to be published in a journal, dissertation
or book, we will check it for accuracy so that you can be confident

Oxford
Latin is based among the dreaming spires
of Oxford, with access to the resources of the Bodleian Library. Its
director is Carolinne White who has a degree in Classics and a doctorate
from Oxford University and experience as a translator. She has worked
on the supplement to the Liddell and Scott Greek Lexicon and more
recently on the Medieval Latin Dictionary from British sources. |

Carolinne specializes
in the Latin of the Church Fathers and the medieval period and has
published several books relating to these areas, including Christian
Friendship in the Fourth Century (Cambridge University Press 1992,
pbk.2002), Early Christian Lives, (Penguin 1998), Early Christian
Latin Poets (Routledge 2000) and The Confessions of St. Augustine
(Frances Lincoln 2001). |
