ADEST: Three Latin Lines About Presence, Form, and Work
A multilingual essay project builds a philosophical vocabulary around three Latin propositions: “it is present everywhere,” “through form it speaks,” and “the work calls.”
Field notes
The project’s opening text uses three Latin propositions as a framework, then examines their grammar and implications in English glosses. Its account of “adest” ranges from physical presence to standing by someone, while “per formam loqvitur” treats conversation, scripture, icons, and inference as carriers of intelligible patterns. The page also exposes language links for English and sixteen other languages, plus a direct email route for responses.
