Description: [Abstract] From the Ciceronian concept of latinitas -shared and varied by Quintilianus, who also uses the consuetudo as basis of the recte loqui- we can see in the Christian literature from Tertulian a double trend. That of the mos uulgi and of the iudicium aurium is characteristic of St. Augustin and agrees with the Cicero’s one, and this trend finally prevails. The other one is the concept of auctoritas defended by the grammarians.
