Following the English translation of florilegium:
noun: florilegium; plural noun: florilegia; plural noun: florilegiums
a collection of literary extracts; an anthology.
Early 17th century: modern Latin, literally ‘bouquet’ (from Latin flos, flor- ‘flower’ + legere ‘gather’), translation of Greek anthologion.
Occasional arrangements of prose, poems, scripts, and scraps. I’d provide real flowers, but—y’know—money! and mailing! Perhaps in another world.
