Book Overview

The Genitive of Value in Latin and Other Constructions with Verbs of Rating is a book written by Gordon Jennings Laing and published in 1920. The book is a detailed analysis of the genitive case in Latin and its use with verbs of rating, such as ""valere"", ""dignus"", and ""indignus"". Laing examines the various ways in which the genitive case is used in Latin to express value, worth, and estimation. He also compares the use of the genitive case with other constructions, such as the ablative case and prepositions. The book is intended for students of Latin and scholars interested in the language's grammar and syntax.
