    What 9 letter adjective derived from Latin meaning "shining back" is a literary term meaning "shining brilliantly"?

    Question #72203. Asked by welllady. (Nov 11 06 4:26 PM)

    Possibly "refulgent," which can be used (pretentiously) to describe a literary work, though I wouldn't call it a standard literary term:
