Dictionary of Ecclesiastical Latin

Dictionary of Ecclesiastical Latin
Leo F. Stelten
The author has put to use his years of experience teaching Latin in compiling this concise reference book. The Dictionary of Ecclesiastical Latin (Latin to English only) includes approximately 17,000 words with the common meanings of Latin found in Church writings. Entries cover Scripture, Canon Law, the Liturgy, Vatican II, the early Church Fathers, and theological terms.

This volume will prove to be an invaluable resource for theological students, as well as for those seeking to improve their knowledge of ecclesiastical Latin. An appendix also provides descriptions of ecclesiastical structures and explains terms from ecclesiastical law.

The dictionary has already been widely praised for its serviceability and indispensability in both academic and Church settings. Hardback, 344 pages. Click on thumbnail (left) to view a sample page.
