Beskrivning
In his English Proverbs and Their Near Equivalents in Spanish, French Italian and Latin, Professor Luis Iscla illustrates the universality of the proverbs based on a common origin: Human experience.Although Professor Iscla attends only to four languages of Latin origin, research in other families of languages would undoubtedly yield similar results.
