Il volume contiene gli Atti di un Convegno tenutosi a Oxford nel 2002 e raccoglie il frutto dei piú recenti studi internazionali sulle prime attestazioni scritte delle lingue romanze, fornendo un aggiornamento sugli ultimi documenti ritrovati e uno sguardo d'insieme sul panorama della filologia e linguistica romanza. Negli ultimi quindici anni ci sono state importanti novità in questo campo: nuove prospettive metodologiche, nuovi strumenti bibliografici, recenti approfondimenti nello studio della cosiddetta "testualizzazione", ovvero del "passage à l'écrit" delle variazioni regionali della lingua latina, che testimoniavano le modificazioni della lingua parlata. Curatori: M. Zaccarello, M. Maiden.

When you dance with the devil, you hold hands with temptation. Christian Montcalm was a practical man, if a destitute scoundrel, but his plan to bed and wed the delectable Miss Hetty Chipple would take care of that sticky wicket. However, there was a most intriguing obstacle to his success. Annelise Kempton desired nothing more than to come between this despicable rogue and the fortune (and virtue) of her young charge. Certainly, Annelise understood the desperation that comes from hard times, but Montcalm would fail -- she would personally see to it. All that stands in her way is a man whose rakish charm could tempt a saint to sin, or consign a confirmed spinster to sleepless nights of longing...to give the devil his due. Book
