Sinopsis

Excerpt from Some Applications of Logical and Psychological Principles to Grammar: A Thesis

Of late a more philosophical tendency has made itself manifest in the field Of philology. But even in such books as Sweet's New English Grammar, and Paul's Principles Of Language, the purely philosophical portion is treated as if of secondary importance; and hence the Old saws Of the Schoolmen and the assumptions Of modern scientists are unsystematically jumbled together and uncritically accepted as the very starting-points and foundations Of the science.

Excerpt from Some Applications of Logical and Psychological Principles to Grammar: A Thesis

This thesis should be read in the same manner as an impatient novel-reader peruses fiction. The last chapter ought to be read both first and last. Economy of space alone forbids us to print it twice. After reading the summary, those philologically inclined will find more of interest to themselves in the latter half of the thesis.

The tabulated "analyses" and "summaries," found generally at the end of the chapters, will give a comprehensive conception of the system, and are hence the most important parts of the text.
