Download or read book Introduction to the Natural History of Language (Classic Reprint) written by T. G. TUCKER and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the Natural History of Language The present book is what its title implies it is an out line. So far as it is a student's book, it is meant for nothing more than a first general survey of the field. It does not hope to enlighten materially the professional philologist, but only to bring him disciples. Nevertheless, it is no mere compilation. The facts are necessarily in a considerable measure the same facts which have done duty in other works, whether general or special, but the writer trusts that he has employed sufficient independence of thought in weighing various theories against the material, and in offer ing, with all due diffidence, conclusions or speculations of his own.

Book Synopsis A Natural History of Latin by : Tore Janson
Download or read book A Natural History of Latin written by Tore Janson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-01-25 with total page 316 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in Rome around 600 BC, Latin became the language of the civilized world and remained so for more than two millennia. French, Spanish, Italian, and Romanian are among its progeny and it provides the international vocabulary of law and life science. No known language, including English - itself enriched by Latin words and phrases - has achieved such success and longevity. Tore Janson tells its history from origins to present. Brilliantly conceived and written with the same light touch as his bestselling history of languages, A Natural History of Latin is a masterpiece of adroit synthesis. The author charts the expansion of Latin in the classical world, its renewed importance in the Middle Ages, and its survival into modern times. He shows how spoken and written Latin evolved in different places and its central role in European history and culture. He ends with a concise Latin grammar and lists of Latin words and phrases still in common use. Considered elitist and irrelevant in the second half of the twentieth century and often even banned from schools, Latin is now enjoying a huge revival of interest across Europe, the UK, and the USA. Tore Janson offers persuasive arguments for its value and gives direct access to its fascinating worlds, past and present.

Beginning in Rome around 600 BC Latin became the language of the civilized world and remained so for over two millennia. French, Spanish, Italian, and Romanian are among its progeny and it still provides the international vocabulary of law and life science. No known language, including English - itself enriched by Latin words and phrases - has achieved such success and longevity. Tore Janson tells its history from origins to the present. Brilliantly conceived and written with the same light touch as Speak, his bestselling history of languages, A Natural History of Latin is a masterpiece of adroit synthesis. The author charts the expansion in the classical world, its renewed importance in the Middle Ages, and its survival into modern times. He shows its central role in European history and culture and, by judicious quotation of phrases and texts, describes how spoken and written Latin changed and evolved differently in different places. He ends with a summary of Latin grammar and lists of Latin words and of phrases still in common use. Considered elitist and irrelevant in the second half of the twentieth century and often banned from schools, Latin is now enjoying a huge revival of interest and a renaissance in schools across Europe, the UK, and the USA.

Although the ultimate origin of language is likely to remain unknown several scientific approaches have been made that lead to various theories concerning the developement of human language.
