General index<br />

<strong>The</strong> following index includes only important terms and sub-topics, and most proper names, from the <strong>Etymologies</strong>.For larger<br />

topics consult the Analytical Table <strong>of</strong> Contents. Both English and Latin terms are indexed, but when a Latin term is close in<br />

meaning and form to the corresponding English translation, only the English is given. Book X is a dense list <strong>of</strong> such terms<br />

descriptive <strong>of</strong> human beings as “lifeless,” “hateful,” “generous,” “enviable.” Its Latin terms are in alphabetical order. Seeing<br />

that such terms are unlikely to be the object <strong>of</strong> an index search, and that including them would unduly swell the bulk <strong>of</strong> an<br />

index already large, we exclude Book X here, though not from the two indexes that follow. <strong>The</strong> valuable index <strong>of</strong> the Oroz<br />

Reta–Casquero Spanish translation <strong>of</strong> the <strong>Etymologies</strong> divides the terms into categories: a general index followed by indexes<br />

<strong>of</strong> proper names, geographical terms, botanical terms, zoological terms, and stones and minerals.<br />
