Excerpt from A Grammar of the German Language: Systematically Arranged on a New Plan, Brief, Comprehensive and Practical
Every free country, trusting to correct and general intelligence for the permanency of its institutions, will liberally patronize, not only science and native litera ture, but also the study of foreign languages, with a view of deriving aid from the intellectual labours and improvements of other nations. Among those languages which are attracting the attention of the scholar, the philologist and the statesman, none pos sesses more charms, excites more interest, or Opens more sources of information and Speculation, than the German. Formerly, it was rarely ever found included in a course of collegiate or general study. But as the beauties' and wealth of German literature have be come known and appreciated, its study has become more general. Now it finds able advocates in nearly all the respectable literary institutions of the land. New England, the Greece of the new world, where the rays of light are concentrated from every dirce tion, and again reflected abroad, has the honour of being the first in this country to encours and culti vate the study of the langua e in which ghiller and Gothe, Wieland and Burger, arner and Voss, Klopp~ stock, Herder and Schlegel have rendered themselves immortal.
