Sinopsis

Excerpt from Chapters on the Science of Language

My object, in composing the present work, has been to condense into a small compass the results of former discussions on several interesting philological problems, chiefly for the benefit of those who have not had, either the leisure or opportunity of devoting their time to philology, and also with a View to induce some, who may never have read anything on the subject - either because they think it dry, or because they know not what mysteries the science of language will unfold - to begin a study which promises so rich a harvest.

Excerpt from Chapters on the Science of Language

The task I have undertaken is not one without difficulties, hut my subject is so full of interest, that I feel convinced it would be enticing, were it trusted in the hands of a still less skillful writer, for many will acknowledge with me, that few sciences, if any at all, can lay a more just claim to the attention of the thinking man than the Science of Language, since it treats of the greatest, most valuable and useful possession of mankind.
