gentium

• The law of nations

gens, gentis, f. [root GEN, gigno, that which belongs together by birth or descent], a race or clan, embracing several families united together by a common name and by certain religious rites; orig. only patrician, but, after the granting of the connubium between patricians and plebeians, also plebeian (syn.: familia, stirps, genus; natio, populus).

In a manner borrowed from the division of the senators into majorum and minorum gentium (v. above): ipsi illi majorum gentium dii qui habentur, hinc a nobis profecti in caelum reperientur, the superior deities (the consentes), Cic. Tusc. 1, 13, 29:

Cleanthes, qui quasi majorum est gentium Stoicus,

id. Ac. 2, 41, 126.—

Poet., like genus and stirps, of a single descendant, offspring of an entire race:

vigilasne, deūm gens, Aenea?

Dis genite,

id. ib. 9, 642):

Tirynthia gens est (i. e. Fabius),

id. Q. Fr. 2, 13, 1.—

In the widest sense = genus, the race; gens humana, the human race, Cic. Fin. 5, 23, 65; Hor. C. 1, 3, 26.—

quos (equos) in spem statues summittere gentis,

of the race, breed, Verg. G. 3, 73:

utque luat poenas gens haec (i. e. vulpes),

breed, race, Ov. F. 4, 711.—

In a more extended sense (as also genos), a race, nation, people (sometimes more restricted than natio and populus, and sometimes put for them; v. in the foll., and cf. Drak. Liv. 23, 42, 1;

freq. and class.): Qui gentis omnis mariaque et terras movet,

Plaut. Rud. prol. 1: cf.:

nos per gentis disparat,

(Deus) non curat singulos homines... ne civitates quidem... ne nationes quidem et gentes,

Alibi... alibi (even several times), in one place... in another; here... there = hic... illic;

hence also sometimes hic or illic... alibi: alibi pavorem, alibi gaudium ingens facit,

Liv. 3, 18; 8, 32; Sen. Ep. 98 al.:

exercitus, trifariam dissipatus, alibi primum, alibi postremum agmen, alibi impedimenta, inter vepres delituit,

Liv. 38, 46; Plin. 2, 3, 3, § 8; so id. 5, 27, 27, § 99 al.:

hic segetes, illic veniunt felicius uvae, Arborei fetus alibi,

Verg. G. 1, 54; Plin. 10, 50, 71, § 146. Once alibi... deinde, Curt. 7, 4, 26.—

Joined with words of the same origin (alius; v. alius, aliter, etc.): alibi alius or aliter, one here, another there; one in this, the other in that manner:

esse alios alibi congressus materiaï, Qualis hic est,

that matter has elsewhere other combinations, similar to that of the world, Lucr. 3, 1065:

exprobrantes suam quisque alius alibi militiam,

Liv. 2, 23:

pecora diversos alium alibi pascere jubet,

id. 9, 2; so id. 44, 33:

alius alibi projectus,

Vulg. Sap. 18, 18:

medium spatium torrentis, alibi aliter cavati,

Liv. 44, 35.—

Alibi atque alibi, at one time here, at another there; now here, now there (cf. aliubi, B.):

haec (aqua) alibi atque alibi utilior nobilitavit loca gloriā ferri,

Plin. 34, 14, 41, § 144.—

With negatives, nec, non, nusquam, nec usquam:

nec tam praesentes alibi cognoscere divos,

Verg. E. 1, 42:

asperrima in hac parte dimicatio est, nec alibi dixeris magis mucrone pugnari,

Quint. 6, 4, 4:

nusquam alibi,

Cic. Ac. 2, 32, 103:

omnis armatorum copia dextrā sinistrā ad equum, nec usquam alibi,

id. Att. 13, 52. And instead of a negative, an interrogation implying it:

num alibi quam in Capitolio?

Liv. 5, 52.—

Alibi quam, indicating comparison, elsewhere than, commonly with a neg., non, nusquam, etc., nowhere else than:

qui et alibi quam in Nilo nascitur,

Plin. 32, 10, 43, § 125:

posse principem alibi quam Romae fieri,

Tac. H. 1, 4; id. A. 15, 20:

faciliusque laudes vestras alibi gentium quam apud vos praedicārim,

App. Flor. p. 360, 4:

nusquam alibi quam in Macedoniā,

Liv. 43, 9:

ne alibi quam in armis animum haberent,

id. 10, 20; Tac. A. 1, 77: nec alibi quam in Germaniā, * Suet. Aug. 23; so Col. R. R. 8, 11, 8.—

Transf. from place to other objects.

Otherwise, in something else, in other things, in other respects:

si alibi plus perdiderim, minus aegre habeam,

Plaut. Bacch. 5, 1, 16:

neque istic neque alibi tibi erit usquam in me mora,

Ter. And. 2, 5, 9; id. Heaut. 2, 3, 38:

nec spem salutis alibi quam in pace,

Liv. 30, 35, 11:

alibi quam in innocentiā spem habere,

id. 7, 41:

alibi quam mos permiserit,

otherwise, in other things, than custom allows, Quint. 11, 1, 47; 4, 1, 53.—

Of persons, elsewhere, with some other one (very rare):

priusquam hanc uxorem duxi, habebam alibi (sc. apud meretricem) animum amori deditum,

Ter. Hec. 3, 1, 14: Quantum militum transportatum sit, apud auctores discrepat: alibi decem milia peditum, duo milia ducentos [p. 84] equites, alibi parte plus dimidiā rem auctam invenio, Liv. 29, 25:

interdum alibi est hereditas, alibi tutela,

Dig. 26, 4, 1; so, in designating another place in an author, Quint. 4, 2, 110; 8, 3, 21 al.—

In post-Aug. prose sometimes, like alias (v. that word), for alioqui, otherwise:

rhinocerotes quoque, rarum alibi animal, in iisdem montibus erant,

an animal otherwise rare, Curt. 9, 1, 5:

nemus opacum arboribus alibi inusitatis,

with trees else rare, id. 9, 1, 13.
