Summary/Abstract: This paper focuses on examining how in his Etymologiae sive Origines Isidore of Seville makes use of the lexis that describes marvellous phenomena. This lexis was borrowed to some extent from Solinus’ Collectanea rerum memorabilium. This research therefore aims at checking the results of some previous studies which demonstrate the rationality of Isidore’s approach by investigating the lexis in his work
