Excerpt from Introduction to the Study of Language: A Critical Survey of the History and Methods of Comparative Philology of the Indo-European Languages
The character of the present work is mainly determined by the circumstances that it is intended by the author to facilitate the study of the "Grammars" which Breitkopp & Hartel are publishing, as well as the comprehension of comparative philology in its newest form.
The field of this "Introduction" is no broader than that of the above-mentioned "Grammars". Wherever in the following pages language, language-development, phonetic laws etc. are discussed, Indo-European language, Indo-European language-development etc., must alone be understood. I have felt the less inclination to discuss questions which lie outside the Indo-European domain, as for example those suggested by universal philology, because in reality the influence of philosophical linguistic research upon the science founded by Bopp has always been of slight account, and is very trifling at present. In limiting myself to the departments of phonetics and inflection I have also followed the "Grammars", but I must acknowledge that I should not, perhaps, have practised this self-denial if I had not just shown, in the fourth volume of my syntactical investigations (Die Grundlagen der griechischen Syntax, Halle, 1879), how in my opinion the comparative syntax of the Indo-European languages should be treated.
The book here laid before the public is divided into a historical and an analytical part.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the history and development of the field of comparative philology, beginning with the work of Franz Bopp, considered the founder of the discipline. It provides an overview of how scholars have sought to explain the similarities and differences among Indo-European languages, primarily by comparing their forms and postulating a common origin. The author highlights significant theories and controversies that have shaped the field, including Bopp's influential theory on the origins of inflection. The book also examines the methodological debates and shifts in perspective that have characterized the evolution of comparative philology, offering insights into the development of linguistic science as a whole.
