Soft cover. Condición: Fine. 1st Edition. Wrappers. Edition limited to 100 numbered copies. "George Borrow's The Bible in Spain, the account of his Peninsular campaign for the British and Foreign Bible Society, ends not in Spain but in Morocco. The writer spent six weeks in Tangiers, August-September 1839, during which time, ever the word collector, he filled a notebook with words and expressions from the local Arabic . . . By his own account, Borrow was no scholar. His intention in compilation was practical, not academic. Hopkins quotes a passage from Lavengro where the author contrasts his love of languages and his love of horses. Were it not for the latter, he writes, 'I might, otherwise, have become a mere philologist; one of those beings who toil night and day in culling useless words for some opus magnum which Murray will never publish, and nobody ever read . . .' Rough, ready and miscellaneous though Borrow's Vocabulary may be, it is of unusual value, reports Hopkins, as one of the earliest records of spoken Moroccan Arabic. He bravely addresses Borrow's 'transcriptional chaos' and notes a Jewish linguistic bias, which leads him to speculate that Borrow's principal source may have been Hayim Ben Attar, the young, Fez-born Jewish servant in the house where Borrow stayed whom he then took with him back to England. One wonders at their conversation. If the phrases Borrow jots down are any guide, it took some strange turns. 'Hassan told me the women were handsome'; 'The remedy for it is to eat butter in the morning'; 'Christians are bad'; 'Moslems may have 3 wives'; 'are you not afraid of witches'; 'if it wont but continue it were well'" (The Book Collector). …
