This Latin phrase is widely used and has been a source of controversy.
have seen Many times the publishers or editors and do not always properly understood.
language According to historian Charles Smith, a researcher at the university teaching Case Western Reserve in Cleveland United States, this phrase is so important that it deserved a joint work with researchers from Duke University Durham and University of North Carolina of Chapel Hill.

can not fail to relate, making a simple philosophical deduction, the reference of pain itself, the feeling itself and not the action that causes the pain.
This simple change of interpretation is so simple and yet so different that gives meaning to a phrase or text.
Smith has some older trials had to be recatalog to analyze this alternative interpretation.
The first reference to that phrase in a text of Cicero written in 45 BC is a text on ethical theories, widely read during the Renaissance .
original text begins porro quisquam est agouti qui dolorem ipsum quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci Velit ... (No one who loves pain itself, who seeks and would like to have, simply because it is pain.)
The big surprise of the researchers was the discovery that Lorem Ipsum was the name of a person. A character so evil and despicable that became an icon of the undesirable.
If one rereads the text knowing this information can tell immediately that changes the meaning of the phrase. "... No one Lorem Ipsum loves to call it, or would like to have, simply because it is Lorem Ipsum.
curious addition to the story is completely false.
The phrase "Lorem Ipsum" is used as a meaningless filler text to show the font in a print, as you can read here
