Excerpt: ... me and tham are here in the Saxon dative case. Me. thinks, it seems to me, mini videtur. RULE II. A name, a nominative case or a sentence joined with a participle of the present tense, may stand in construction without a verb, forming the Case absolute, or Clause independent; as "Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place." John 5. 13. Here multitude, the name, joined with being, stands without a verb. " By memory we conceive heat or light, yellow or sweet, the object being removed." Locke 2. 10, " I have, notwithstanding this discouragement, attempted a dictionary of the English language." Johnson's Preface. " Whatever substance begins to exist, it must, during in existence, necessarily be the same." Locke 2. 27.-28. " The penalty shall be fine and imprisonment, any law or custom to the contrary notwithstanding." The latter phraseology is peculiar to the technical law style. In no other case, does notwithstanding follow the sentence. But this position makes no difference in the true construction, which is, " any law or custom to the contrary not opposing"--the real clause independent. It is very common, when this participle agrees with a number of words, or a whole clause, to omit the whole except the participle; and in this use of notwithstanding, we have a striking proof of the value of abbreviations in language. For example; " Moses said, let no man leave of it till the morning. Notwithstanding, they hearkened not unto Moses." Ex. 16. 20. Here notwithstanding stands without the clause to which it belongs; to complete the sense in words, it would be necessary to repeat the whole preceding clause or the substance of it--" Moses said, let no man leave of it until the morning. Notwithstanding this command of Moses, ...

Download or read book Language Between Description and Prescription written by Lieselotte Anderwald and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Language Between Description and Prescription is an empirical, quantitative and qualitative study of nineteenth-century English grammar writing, and of nineteenth-century language change. Based on 258 grammar books from Britain and North America, the book investigates whether grammar writers of the time noticed the language changing around them, and how they reacted. In particular, Lieselotte Anderwald demonstrates that not all features undergoing change were noticed in the first place, those that were noticed were not necessarily criticized, and some recessive features were not upheld as correct. The features investigated come from the verb phrase and include in particular variable past tense forms, which -although noticed-often went uncommented, and where variation was acknowledged; the decline of the be-perfect, where the older form (the be-perfect) was criticized emphatically, and corrected; the rise of the progressive, which was embraced enthusiastically, and which was even upheld as a symbol of national superiority, at least in Britain; the rise of the progressive passive, which was one of the most violently hated constructions of the time, and the rise of the get-passive, which was only rarely commented on, and even more rarely in negative terms. Throughout the book, nineteenth-century grammarians are given a voice, and the discussions in grammar books of the time are portrayed. The book's quantitative approach makes it possible to examine majority and minority positions in the discourse community of nineteenth-century grammar writers, and the changes in accepted opinion over time. The terms of the debate are also investigated, and linked to the wider cultural climate of the time. Although grammar writing in the nineteenth century was very openly prescriptivist, the studies in this book show that many prescriptive dicta contained interesting grains of descriptive detail, and that eventually prescriptivism had only a small-scale, short-term effect on the actual language used.

This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 19th century, education became accessible to much wider circles of society in a great number and variety of schools and the teaching of grammar came to be obligatory from 1870/72 with the advent of general education. Whereas these general trends of the 19th century are well-known to scholars working in different disciplines of social history, and the history of education in particular, it is still true that major sections of the evidence are largely uncollected. This is especially so for school books: there is virtually a gap between the 18th century and the present grammatical tradition. This bibliography lists some 1930 works on English grammar published in the 19th century, mainly in Britain and the US, half of which are accompanied by short descriptions of their physical make-up, content and affiliation.

This book was released on 2017-05-26 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Analytical and Practical Grammar of the English Language In the rules and definitions throughout, accuracy. Brevity, euphony, and adaptation to the practical operations of the schoolroom, have been particularly attended to. N o startling novelties have been introduced; at the same time, where it was thought that a change would be an improvement, it has been made. It was felt that a work on this subject, of a higher grade, and more suited to the wants of higher seminaries, and more advanced students, with out detracting from its simplicity and practical character, was wanted, and the aim has been to supply this want; while at the same time its relation to the series, of which it is intended to form a part, has not only been preserved, but rendered more close and intimate. With a grateful sense of past kindnesses, the Author now commits the re sult of his labors to the favorable consideration of a candid and enlightened public, and especially to that of the Teachers throughout the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Frederik Theodor Visser's An Historical Syntax of the English Language, published in four massive volumes between 1963 and 1973, is certainly one of the cornerstones of research in English linguistics. Visser's achievements can hardly be overestimated. Before the advent of modern corpus linguistics, he compiled a remarkable wealth of detailed philological data from all periods of English and combined this with current grammatical analyses of his time. This has made this publications an indispensable resource for anyone investigating the history of English syntax. This reproduction of Visser's volumes is more than welcome, and timely, as the volumes have been out of print for quite some time and were sometimes a little bit difficult to navigate. Having a searchable and easy-to-use online version, although maybe not perfect, available now means a revival for scholarship that celebrates its fiftieth birthday without losing any of its relevance.

This book was released on 2017-12-15 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores potential paths in historical sociolinguistics, with a particular focus on the inter-related areas of methodological innovations, hitherto un- or under-explored textual resources, and theoretical advancements and challenges. The individual chapters cover Dutch, Finnish and different varieties of English and are based on data spanning from the fifteenth century to the present day. Paying tribute to Terttu Nevalainen’s pioneering work, the book highlights the wide range and complexity of the field of historical sociolinguistics and presents achievements and challenges of interdisciplinary collaboration. The book is of interest to a wide readership, ranging from scholars of historical linguistics, sociolinguistics, corpus linguistics and digital humanities to (advanced) graduate and postgraduate students in courses on language variation and change.
