Abstract


Throughout Latinity it is a common opinion the intensive force of some preverbs like per- or prae-, when they form modified adjectives (seuerus-perseuerus). This paper tries to analyse such type of adjectives in the works of Tacitus. After explaining the origin of these formations (seemingly proceeding from the sermo plebeius), and their different phases of creation in Latin literature, we review aH the forms found in Tacitus (eight with per- and seventeen with prae-), in order to examine their superlative force, their uis intentiua).
