SPIRIT
Anything eminently refined inflammable liquor raised by distillation perhaps *spiritus (technical term): *liquor acrior (Georges): liquor tenuissimus nobilissimus efficacissimus (Bau; Plaut. says flos vini). Hence
Essential quality flos: medulla. The spirit of Luther’s works flores e Lutheri scriptis decerpti (after Plin. 14 1 extr.).
Figuratively Liveliness vivacity (of style) spiritus sanguis (freshness): to borrow from poets the art of giving a subject spirit and life a poetis in rebus spiritum petere (Quint. 10 1 27): in Archilochus we find great spirit and life in Archilocho plurimum sanguinis atque nervorum (Quint. 10 1 60).
The soul powers of the human mind animus (the vital power the sensitive and appetitive nature τὸ ἐπιθυμητικόν ὁ θυμός; then the whole spiritual nature of man; opposed to corpus): mens (the intellect ὁ νοῦς): anima (in the best writers denotes the principle of life = spiritus πνεῦμα; it is only in later prose writers that it obtains the meaning of animus): spiritus (almost = anima the breath of life; then also those properties of the mind which answer to our “high spirit ” energy inspiration etc.): ingenium (intellectual powers talent especially the creative or inventive faculty). (The words are found in this connection and order.) animus et mens: A great or lofty spirit animus magnus excelsus altus; ingenium magnum excelsum: a man of great spirit animus magnus; vir magni ingenii: noble or choice spirits clarissima ingenia: an inferior spirit ingenium parvum pusillum; homo parvi ingenii (of a person): a philosophical spirit subtilitas (in disputando); vir subtilis sagax (of the parson): to have great spirit magno ingenio esse; ingenio abundare: to show spirit signa dare ingenii.
The prevailing opinion or constitution of mind also that which principally guides the actions animus: mens: studium alicujus rei (inclination to anything). A servile spirit animus servilis: a spirit of contradiction *obloquendi studium: a spirit of novelty rerum novarum or novandarum studium: a spirit of private gain *privatae utilitatis studium: a warlike spirit gloriae bellicae studium; studium bellicum.
Peculiar manner of thinking and acting ingenium (peculiar turn or constitution of mind): natura (natural quality or stale): proprietas (property): ratio (peculiar manner and way): mens (the peculiar mode of thinking; hence also the sense attached by a writer to his words; opposed to verba; Vid: Paullus Dig. 19 4 19): voluntas or (Auct. ad Her. 2 10) scriptoris voluntas (that which a writer means to say that which he had in his mind when he wrote; opposed to scriptum verba or litterae = literal meaning the letter; Vid: Cic. Caecin. 23 65; De Invent. 1 4 19); also voluntatis conjectura (opposed to verborum proprietas): sententia (idea contained in what is said etc; opposed to verbum ac littera; Vid: Cic. Caecin. 27 77): id quod ex verbis intelligi potest (opposed to the words themselves): ☞ Genius in this sense is not Latin.

The spirit of eloquence among the Greeks in each successive age can be learnt from their writings ex Graecorum scriptis cujuscumque aetatis quae dicendi ratio voluntasque fuerit intelligi potest: to comprehend the spirit of a writer mentem (☞ not genium) scriptoris assequi; ad voluntatem scriptoris accedere: the spirit of Laelius seems also to breathe in his writings videtur Laelii mens etiam spirare in scriptis: the spirit of the Greek language *Graecae linguae natura: spirit of the age [Vid: AGE].
A simple incorporeal being with the power of thought and will perhaps spiritus (Sen.
