The etymological origin of the term ineditus that concerns us now has its etymological origin in the Latin adjective ineditus. We can point out that this is a word that means “unpublished” and that it is the result of the sum of several lexical components of said language:
-The prefix in- , which is synonymous with “without” and “no”.
-The adjective editus , which can be translated as “published”.
The unpublished adjective
The adjective unpublished is used to describe the text that has not yet been published . The term can also be used with respect to a writer when he has not yet published any work .
For example: "The daughter of the French novelist found her father's unpublished material in a drawer" , "Believe it or not, until I was 70 I was an unpublished author" , "The literary contest is open to original and unpublished stories, written in Spanish or Galician.”
New, original, unknown, fresh or released are some of the words that can be used as synonyms for the unpublished term that concerns us now. On the contrary, among its antonyms we find words such as old or known.
Some examples
Suppose that a man has published three books: two collections of poems and a novel. He is not, therefore, an unpublished writer. However, he has also written four stories that were never published. This material is unpublished (it would only stop being so if it appears in a book).
Thus, for example, some time after the death of the writer Mario Benedetti , the Alfaguara publishing house published an unpublished book by him titled “Biography to find myself” .
The unprecedented in cinema
In the same way, within the field of cinema it is very common to use the term in question. Thus, it is common for unpublished material from the filming of a film to be presented to the satisfaction of fans of that film who can learn more about how the film took place, the relationship that existed between the actors and the director or even the problems that may have arisen during the filming. same.
Furthermore, in this same field, it sometimes happens that when the DVD or Blu-Ray of a feature film is released to the market, it establishes the incorporation not only of the final cut that was broadcast in theaters but also of yet another montage of the film where unpublished content is added.
something unknown or new
The notion of unprecedented is also used to refer to something new or unknown : “The minister stated that the agreement reached with the IMF is unprecedented because it does not impose conditions on the country,” “The World Cup will have an unprecedented final, since that none of the semi-finalists played in the decisive match in previous editions of the tournament” , “An unpublished video of the English band excited their followers” .
Take the case of the president of a country who announces a massive and widespread tax cut. The president describes this measure as unprecedented because never before in the history of the nation has such an initiative been carried out. If another government had carried out something similar in the past, then it could not be said that this tax change is unprecedented.
