This work offers an overview, synchronic and diachronic, of causal clauses in Latin. In addition to addressing the functional characterization of causal clauses in the classical period, focusing on the conjunctions (quod, quia, quoniam) that express causal meaning, this work also examines the keys fundamental both to the process of grammaticalization of distinct causal conjunctions in Latin and to its diachronic evolution -- keys that help us understand not only classical philology, but also romance languages and linguistics in general.
