No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Extensive searches of scholarly catalogs (UNESCO, Open Library, Google Books, Library of Congress, Internet Archive) yielded no evidence of an English translation of Lactantius Placidus' 'Glossae'. The work is a technical philological glossary from the 19th century, which is consistent with the lack of English translations for such specialized Latin texts. No translations were found in any of the searched databases.

This work restores the long-obscured glosses of Luctatius Placidus, providing a raw look at how ancient grammarians struggled to define the crumbling Roman world. Readers will uncover a chaotic, essential map of archaic Latin, mythology, and legal custom salvaged from corrupted manuscripts.
