Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of Living Languages Englishmen especially, are at this moment employed by thou sands, as Merchants, Missionaries, Magistrates, &c., in learning hundreds of different languages spoken by people 111 all stages of civilization, from the lowest state of society upwards, and m their speedy acquisition of a correct knowledge and free colloquial use of several tongues of those tribes, hundreds of millions of the human race are most deeply interested, as that upon which mainly de pends both their temporal and eternal interests. Yet I am not aware that there is in existence a single work in which this sub jcet is closely and systematically investigated. It must be ob served that the point before us is, what 15 the best mode of acquir ing a knowledge of the language of savage and semi-civilized na tions? And that this is in some important respects quite distinct from both the acquisition _of dead languages andi'also of the living languages of nations who have been fully civilized and, conse quently, have a complete system of literature, a great variety of books of instruction written by extensively informed Natives, and also thoroughly educated teachers. There are difficulties in learning the languages of semi-civiliz ed and barbarous people which (do not exist in the case of the languages of civilized nations, and with respect to, the dead lau guages the principal points to be attended to and the objects aimed at are so entirely different from those in living languages, that what is applicable to the one is almost entirely inapplicable to the other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in English, or Glimpses of the Inner Life of Our Language The illustrious founder of the University of Virginia, Thomas Jefferson, appreciating with rare ibresight, nearly fifty years ago, the importance of a scientific study of the English Language, inserted anglo-saxon among the sub jects on which a course of lectures was to be delivered by the incumbent of the chair of Modern Languages. The author, whose good fortune it has been to fill that chair for many years, has been led to think that the increasing interest in the study of our mother tongue called for some aid and systematic guidance, and he has therefore endeav ored in the following pages to point out those topics which deserve most attention, and those methods which lead to a profitable study on a historic basis. He h0pes that his suggestions will call more general attention to the growing importance of a new science, which can already boast of a Muller in England and a Marsh in our own country, and to the charms of the inner life of a noble old tongue, which, through the nations who speak it, now rules the world in undisputed supremacy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Living Languages: A Defence of the Compulsory Study, of Greek at Cambridge And you would have lost nothing by it an opponent might unhesitatingly rejoin and thereupon the question at issue between us becomes clear and definite: for I think I should have lost a great deal. I write on behalf of those who are not good scholars, but can only claim to have got, while at school, in fair measure, such educational advantages as the present system offers to those boys who Show no particular bent for any special study, but work, or abstain from working, at the ordinary subjects at which they find that they are expected and encouraged to work. I do not write on behalf of born scholars. They, no doubt, will always, under any system, find the way to the Greek and Latin books and study them, sooner or later, with avidity and success. I wholly understand the position of those who say that Greek, if its study be made voluntary, will be learned by all who have the making of first-rate scholars in them, and will be lost to none but those whom nature did not mean for scholars. But between those to whom the study of Greek brings real scholarship, and those to whom it brings nothing but tribulation and confusion, there is a large class who attain in it that reasonable degree of competence which they would secure in any subject prominently put in their way throughout their school days, and therewith, as I believe, many advantages, not growing on every branch of the tree of knowledge. These are the boys for whom I wish to save Greek: and I believe it can only be saved by being made compulsory, as an introduction to academic education and a University degree.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern Languages in Education At the meeting of the American Philological Association, which was held in New Haven, in July, 1872, a paper was read by Prof. G. F. Comfort, the Secretary and the chief founder of that society, upon the subject, "Should the Study of the Modern precede that of the Ancient Languages?" taking the affirmative of this question. This paper was published in the August number of Scribner's Monthly Magazine of that year. It covered nearly all the points that are involved in the discussion of the relative merits and claims of the ancient and the modern languages in a general system of education. This subject has recently been brought with great prominence to the attention of the American public, chiefly through the work of the Modern Language Association, and through the action of Harvard University in eliminating Greek from the required studies in the college curriculum. Many calls have been made by teachers and others for the article by Prof. Comfort alluded to above. As the plates for the series of the magazine in which it originally appeared have been destroyed, the undersigned takes pleasure in presenting it to the public in this separate and permanent form, with the title changed to "Modern Languages in Education."

The study of books was pursued to an extent almost incredible at the present day. There raged a national epidemic of scholar ship under the inﬂuence of the narrow humanism which set up classical learning as an end worthy and glorious in itself. Boys at six or seven began the study of Latin and continued until Latin epitaphs were engraved on their tombs.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rosenthal's Common Sense Method of Practical Linguistry: The French Language In a very clear, conclusive, and elaborate argument he showed that the study of Latin and Greek, as pursued in our schools and colleges, was practically worthless; that scarcely any of our students could read the ancient classics with ease and enjoyment, and that not even the teachers themselves were able to use these tongues colloquially. He closed his speech with an eloquent appeal to the College authorities that greater attention should hence forth be paid to the study of modern languages, and many of our leading Universities have since hen endeavored to act upon his advice.
