Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Language When asked by Mr. Dent to write an introduction to the principles of Comparative Philology for his series, I willingly consented, not only because I had the necessary materials ready to hand, but also because I felt there was still room for an addition to the already large literature of the subject; a subject which, however, admits of being approached from so many different points of view that any competent treatment of it is sure to have some special merits of its own. The first part of this book deals with the definition of the science of language, its scope (p. 20) and methods, and the life of language generally. In this part I have aimed at clearness of statement and adequate illustration, and have tried to avoid truisms and superﬂuous generalizations on the one hand, and over-abstraction and linguistic mysticism on the other.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of the History of Language Also the order in which the various points in each chapter are discussed has been generally preserved. On the other hand, we have altered much, as we hope, in the interest of our readers. Professor Paul wrote for Germans in the first place, and secondly for such students as were able to read books like his in the original, i.e. for those who not only knew German enough to feel all the weight and import of his German examples, but who also, like most German students, could be assumed to possess a sufficiently intelligent interest in the history of the German language to appreciate quotations of its older forms (a point which Englishmen have unfortunately too much neglected), and who, thirdly, might be expected to be sufficiently familiar with at least some of the other languages from which he drew his quotations. Now though, in deference to a generally expressed opinion, a second edition of the translation of Paul's work is now in the press, in which all these examples have been translated, this Englishing of the illustrations will, we think, be found to be of use in but few cases.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the History of the English Language The substance of the following chapters was delivered, in the form of County Council lectures, in London during the sessions 1907 - 9, and subsequently at the Summer School, St. Andrew's. It is hoped that the book will serve to introduce students of English to the somewhat neglected background of their studies. In the interest of these a certain amount of specialised material has been introduced, without, it is hoped, impairing the readableness of the book for the general public.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Linguistic Change: An Introduction to the Historical Study of Language This little book, which has grown out of lectures to students beginning their scientific study of language, is primarily intended as a textbook for similar introduc tory courses. It is hoped, however, that it will appeal to a wider public, and consequently technical terms and symbols that are not familiar to all educated people have been eliminated as far as possible. Some readers will be offended at the lack of any exact system of phonetic notation; but such a notation would have required a long explanation, which some readers would have skipped, and which would have caused others to lay the book aside. N 0 real ambiguity seems to result from our attempt to use ordinary symbols and terms in their familiar values.

One or two explanatory statements it may be advisable to make. The history is a history of the language, and not at all of the literature. TO any real comprehension Of the former, however, some knowledge Of the latter is essential; and inasmuch as, in the case Of Anglo Saxon and Early English, sources of information on this subject are not easily accessible to most readers, a slight sketch of the literature Of those periods has been given.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of African Languages AS a rule, no long explanation is needed to make clear why a scientific traveller, an official, a business man, or a missionary should seek to acquire the languages of primitive peoples in our colonies over seas. All the world over, the first requisite for any one who has to deal with men is ability to communi cate with them. When, therefore, a primitive people understands no European language the only course open to the European desirous of opening up intercourse with it is to learn its language. Later on I intend to discuss the practical import ance attaching to the acquisition of primitive languages in some detail, because it is not even yet adequately recognised. But, in the first place, I have to deal with another question, the answer to which is not so immediately obvious: Why.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief History of the English Language In Part V some advantageous changes in order have been made. The most noticeable Of these is in treating the weak verbs before the strong. This order, while not adopted in the larger work, is quite in accord with the plan of both; namely, to give prominence to those elements of the lan guage which have been most stable and most important. The weak verbs were not only more numerous than the strong in the oldest period, but have increased in number and inﬂuence at the expense of the latter. Besides, the present arrangement not only emphasizes the more regular weak class, but also brings together all the less regular classes, an advantage in itself.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outlines of the History of the English Language If the sole function of language is the communication of thought it follows that every development of thought will produce also a development of language. What we require of language is, therefore, no small thing. We require of it that it shall give expression to every human activity, high and low, good and bad; that it shall render all human knowledge, human emotion, human faith and human ambitions; for the creative impulse in man will never rest until it has found its appropriate expression in words or deeds. We expect of language, therefore, that it shall give expression to every possible development of human thought, and the history of the literature in any particular language is the most convincing proof possible that language rises to the occasion and satisfies those demands. It is. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
