[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because by referring to the slavery period as "bellum" it's saying boy, wasn't life beautiful then? Ante bellum is after the beautiful time. Just, no[/quote] You Latin is bad. "Ante bellum" means "before the war."[/quote] Ante means before, regardless. Like antecedent. I'm actually sort of curious about how, say "belle" and "bellum" could be connected, although belle comes from bella (beautiful) and Bellum is from the Greek God of war. Then there's bell as in what makes sound, which seems to have a connection with the roots for war (clamor, roar, etc) so indo-european root would be what? OP, you could always do Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, but make sure you bring carts as well! And sure, a German party in the earlier days of the Third Reich, some Roman orgies as well. All kinds of pretty dresses! [/quote]
