法语、西班牙语、意大利语、葡萄牙语和加泰罗尼亚语等“罗曼语”都是从罗马帝国的拉丁语口语演变而来的。到中世纪末，这些语言的书面形式已经确立，每种语言的使用者都认为他们的语言与拉丁语不同。这种区别是什么时候划分的？现代学者是否有理由将拉丁语和罗曼语的区别应用于中世纪早期？拉丁语和罗曼语之间的关系，在罗马帝国晚期和但丁之间的一千年里，是拉丁语学家，罗马语学家，语言学家，语言学家，中世纪历史学家和文本评论家关注的中心话题。这些领域都是代表在这个收集的论文从一个跨学科的会议在美国举行。所有的专家在各自的领域，贡献者认为从自己独特的角度的关系。编辑介绍了其他17位作者，他们来自12个不同的国家。他认为，这卷代表了一个真正的进步，虽然提出的问题比给出的答案更多，但共同利益和部分共识的意识得到了发展，将区别的起源进一步推向了1000年时期的结束。
The "Romance" languages of French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Catalan all evolved from the spoken Latin of the Roman Empire. By the end of the Middle Ages the written forms of these languages were established and the speakers of each language considered theirs to be a different language from Latin. When was this distinction drawn? And are modern scholars justified in applying the distinction between Latin and Romance to the early Middle Ages? The relationship between Latin and the Romance languages, in the thousand years between the late Roman Empire and Dante, is a topic of central concern to latinists, romanists, philologists, linguists, medieval historians and textual critics. These areas are all represented in this collection of papers from an interdisciplinary conference held in the United States. All specialists in their fields, the contributors consider the relationship from their own distinct perspectives. The editor introduces the seventeen other authors, who come from twelve different countries. He argues that this volume represents a genuine advance and, though more questions are raised than answers given, a sense of common interest and partial consensus is developed, pushing the distinction's origins further towards the end of the 1000 year period than is generally supposed.
