the latinized form of Gr. Auicecov, the name of a gymnasium and garden with covered walks, near the temple of Apollo Lyceus ('A1roXXcov Ake/Ds) at Athens. Aristotle taught here, and hence the name was applied to his school of philosophy. The name had been used in many languages for places of instruction, &c. In France the term lycee is given to the secondary schools which are administered by the state, in contradistinction to the communal colleges.
