| Publisher Description: In his "English Proverbs and Their Near Equivalents in Spanish, French Italian and Latin," Professor Luis Iscla illustrates the universality of the proverbs based on a common origin: Human experience. Although Professor Iscla attends only to four languages of Latin origin, research in other families of languages would undoubtedly yield similar results. |
