Illustrations of English Philology (Classic Reprint) by Charles Richardson Pdf

Excerpt from Illustrations of English Philology Dear Lambrick, I have long been in possession of your high opinion of the Diversions of Purely; and of your very low opinion of the Dictionary of Doctor Johnson. With respect to the former, we are not, I believe, singular in considering that, as a work of abilities of the author are generally allowed to have been fully equal to his subject: and even the ardent imagination of Mr. Erskine presents no exaggerated picture of the laborious diligence with which Mr. Tooke pursued his philological researches. This I take to be the general sentiment; and it was not, surely, a very unreasonable expectation that such a work should be regarded in some degree as an authority; that it should be pretty commonly read, and studied, and understood.

A Primer of Classical and English Philology (Classic Reprint) by Walter W. Skeat Pdf

Excerpt from A Primer of Classical and English Philology The object of the present little book is to exhibit some of the more elementary principles of modern philology as applied to the etymology of Greek, Latin, and English words. In Chapter I, I give the principal points that concern the proper pronunciation of Greek and Latin. For the pronunciation of Anglo-Saxon, the student is referred to Sweet's Anglo-Saxon Primer. In Chapter II, I show how Greek is usually transliterated, whenever Latin or English words are borrowed from that language. I next state a few laws that govern the combination of letters in Greek; and note the chief vowel-changes in Latin arising from the prefixing of prepositions to verbs. In Chapter III, I explain what is meant by 'cognate'; with some examples of Grimm's Law as applied to cognate words in Greek, Latin, and English. In Chapter IV, I note some characteristics of Greek and Latin that are exemplified at every turn when it is desired to compare them with English. The remaining Chapters are wholly occupied with an exemplification of the principles of gradation; because without a sound knowledge of such principles it is impossible to compare the vowel-sounds in the three languages (Greek, Latin, and English); and until such vowel-changes are rightly understood, no true comparison of cognate words can he made.

The Philology of the English Tongue (Classic Reprint) by John Earle Pdf

Excerpt from The Philology of the English Tongue There are two chief ways of entering upon a scientific study. One is by the way of Principles, and the other is by the way of Elements. If the learner approaches Philology by the way of principles, it is necessary that the principles should be familiarised to him by the aid of examples and illustrations drawn from various languages. Each of the methods excels in its own peculiar way; and the excellence of this method is, that the subject is presented with the greatest fullness and totality of effect - as a mountain is most imposing to the view on its most precipitous side. But it has this great drawback, - that the learner can ill judge of the examples; he must take them on authority; and so far forth as the instruction is based on facts which are not within the cognisance of the learner, the teaching is unscientific.

Philological Studies with English Illustrations (Classic Reprint) by Josiah W. Gibbs Pdf

Excerpt from Philological Studies With English Illustrations Tun writer of the following pages has here brought to gether various grammatical and philological principles, which he has found more or less useful in his course of teaching. They have been derived for the most part from distinguished German philologians, particularly from the writings of Dr. Karl Ferdinand Becker, and are here illustrated from our own language. Although many of these principles are now cur rent in our schools of learning, the writer hopes that the publication may not be amiss.

History of the English Language (Classic Reprint) by T. R. Lounsbury Pdf

Excerpt from History of the English Language As regards the subject of nomenclature, I have seen no reason to alter essentially that which was employed in the previous editions. On one point in particular, action has not been taken unadvisedly. I have exam ined with care everything accessible on the subject, and, I think, nearly everything that has been published, and the more I have read, the less I have been im pressed with the force of the arguments against the use of the term anglo-saxon. I have therefore te tained it in this work, as furnishing what is all-impor tant in nomenclature, a term which, once understood, can never be misunderstood. It is very noticeable that those who are most violently opposed to its use, not unfrequently resort to it when they wish to define with absolute precision what they mean when they apply the term Old English to a particular period in the history of the language. There are, indeed, advantages and disadvantages connected with any terminology that may be adopted. It is certainly an argument in favor of the designation as Old English of what is here called anglo-saxon, that it makes promi nent the continuity of our speech. It is an objection to it that, besides the inevitable ambiguity of the epi thet old, ' it suggests wrong ideas as to the nature of that continuity. Still it would be folly to attach impor tance to this particular subject. It is only those who magnify matters of minor consequence that will con sider the question as one of much moment. I have.

Outlines of the History of the English Language (Classic Reprint) by E. Classen Pdf

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.
