Dictionary of Latin words used by authors of the Roman Republic, compiled by the Roman grammarian, Nonius Marcellus. De compendiosa doctrina consists of lists of words, their definitions, and quotations of authors using those words. Originally there were 20 chapters; the sixteenth is now lost. The first 12 chapters deal with grammar and style; in the final eight, words are arranged by subject matter such as clothing ("De genere vel colore vestimentorum"), weapons ("De genere armorum"), and food ("De genere ciborum et potuum").
