Germanic Philology (Classic Reprint) by Richard Loewe Pdf

Excerpt from Germanic Philology = 'th' in English 'think.' o = 'th' in English 'they.' ʒ = a front continuant like 'y' in Engl. 'yes.' 'z' = (exc. in High German in which it has either the value of 's' or of 'ts') 's' in 'rose' or 'z' in 'freeze.' O.N. 'v' = Engl. 'w.' O.Bg. 's' = Engl. 'sh.' O.Ind. 's' and 's' are variations of 'sh.' O.Ind. 'j' = 'j' in Engl. 'judge.' O.Ind. 'c' = 'ch' in Engl. 'child.' O.Ind. 'y' = 'y' in Engl. 'year.' Goth. 'ei' = 'i' in Engl. 'machine.' O.E. 'ae' = 'a' in Engl. 'man.' The sign generally denotes the syllable bearing the chief accent; in O.E., O.N., O.Norw., however, it marks a long vowel, which is denoted by - in the other languages. Other signs of pronunciation will be explained in the text itself, especially in the sections on sound-shifting. Prefixed to any word means that it is a hypothetical form.

Multiple Perspectives on English Philology and History of Linguistics by Shōichi Watanabe,Tetsuji Oda,Hiroyuki Eto Pdf

This collection of articles covers a wide range of topics in English philology and history of linguistics. The volume proceeds from Old English studies offering a unique perspective and approach in literary and linguistic research into Anglo-Saxon England. Two articles deal with English phonology from both historical and contemporary standpoints, and another with a theoretical discussion of etymological inquiry. The last section contains three articles focusing on the history of linguistics or the history of ideas. The wide range of topics addressed in the 12 chapters of this volume reflects the diversity of interests in the research efforts of Shoichi Watanabe, professor emeritus at Sophia University, to whom this volume is dedicated by his former students. He is not only highly valued as a distinguished professor of English philology, but also acknowledged for his critique of civilization with his unique view of history and culture.

The Grimm Brothers and the Germanic Past by Elmer H. Antonsen,James Woodrow Marchand,Ladislav Zgusta Pdf

The pioneering work of Jacob Grimm and Wilhelm Grimm in the areas of Germanic comparative and historical linguistics, lexicography, philology, and medieval studies places them squarely among the most important figures in the history of the language sciences. The contributions to this volume present a fascinating and timely reevaluation and reaffirmation of the significance of the Grimm Brothers' work in these areas, all of which the Grimms viewed as necessary components in their search for the essence of the German and Germanic Volksgeist.

A Brief Survey of Germanic Studies at Canadian Universities from the Beginnings to 1995 by Michael S. Batts Pdf

This work records the development of the teaching of Germanic languages, primarily German, at Canadian universities over a period of 150 years. The study focusses first on the undergraduate and graduate programmes of study, i.e., what has been and is taught, and on the numbers, sources, and kinds of students enrolled in comes at every level. A detailed analysis is made in particular of the subjects of dissertations for the MA and PhD degrees. A separate chapter is devoted to the programmes of study in Germanic languages and literatures other than German (Danish, Dutch, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish, Yiddish). A similar survey is then made of the teaching staff, where they come from, where and what they studied, and what contribution they have made to research. The third issue is that of the infrastructure of the discipline, what professional organizations there are to represent germanists and to what extent those engaged in research are supported by public funding agencies. The final chapter records the changes in all areas of the discipline over the five-year period from 1990 to 1995.
