[Yulpub] Library of Latin Texts [new]

[Jeffry Larson]

This announcement was recently sent to members of the Classics Dept.
It corrects an announcement that was disseminated in February (subject 
line; CLCLT Online) that mischaracterized the contents of the database.
Please note that the database is no longer limited to Christian Latin 
texts; an immense number of texts of classical authors have been added.
It is still, however, listed under CETEDOC on the alphabetical list of 
databases so that former users will still be able to find it.

Dear Colleagues-
Please share the following announcement with your colleagues & students.

The realm of online texts in Latin has considerably expanded with the 
arrival of Brepols' Library of Latin Texts.  Basically, classical texts 
have been added to a collection of Christian texts, formerly known as CLCLT 
or Cetedoc.  The editions used for the classical authors are from the 
Bibliotheca Teubneriana Latina, formerly available only on paper or on CD-ROM.

The new name is the Library of Latin Texts.

Here is the description we have on the "about" page 
<http://resources.library.yale.edu/online/viewrecorddetpublic.asp?whatcaseedit=1558>, 
which can be found on the alphabetical list of databases off of the 
Library's home page:

About Library of Latin Texts (CLCLT)

CLCLT, a database for Latin texts, including CETEDOC, contains texts from 
the beginning of Latin literature (Livius Andronicus, 240 BC) through to 
the texts of the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965). It covers all the 
works from the classical period, the most important patristic works, a very 
extensive corpus of Medieval Latin literature as well as works of recentior 
latinitas including texts from the Reformation and Counter-Reformation. The 
complete works of writers such as Cicero, Virgil, Augustine, Jerome, 
Gregory the Great, Anselm of Canterbury, Bernard of Clairvaux and Thomas 
Kempis can thus be consulted. The texts have been taken from the Corpus 
Christianorum series and other editions.

You can also find the Library of Latin Texts by title (or keyword) in 
Orbis, which contains direct links to the database & our "about" page:

A link to the Library of Latin Texts will be added shortly to my web page 
for internet resources in classics 
<http://www.library.yale.edu/Internet/classics.html>.

The contents of the Library of Latin Texts is listed in the Guide, pp. 
45ff.; there is a link to the guide in the navigational column on the left 
side of the LLT web page--you'll need Adobe Reader 7.0 to view the Guide 
(at least I did).

This & a new edition of l'Année philologique are some of the resources I'd 
like to show you and your students at your convenience, collectively if 
possible.

I look forward to hearing from you.
