Excerpt from The Philosophy of Language: Comprising Universal Grammar, or the Pure Science of Language; And Glossology, or the Historical Relations of Languages
Recognized the Praeco, to whose most bitter voice (as Cicero says) the goods of the great Pompey were subjected sub basta. Many other such investigations kept alive, amidst the more serious occupations of the law, his regard for the study of language and it was under these circumstances that he was applied to for that treatise on Grammar which appeared in the Encyclopedia Metr'opolitana. A few years afterwards he was raised to the high station of Chief Justice of Malta; the arduous duties of which office absorbed, for many years, nearly the whole of his time. At length, in 1839, he was relieved from that important charge, and left to close a long life in the atz'um cum dignitate which he still enjoys.

Excerpt from The Philosophy of Language: Comprising Universal Grammar, or the Pure Science of Language; And Glossology, or the Historical Relations of Languages
The present work was originally composed for the Encyclopædia Metropolitana, a publication which was designed to have been produced under the editorial care of the late Samuel Taylor Coleridge. That accomplished scholar, distinguished poet, and proiound metaphysician, was unfortunately prevented by ill health, and other adverse circumstances, from carrying the intended editorship into effect. He, however, not only devised the comprehensive plan which was described in the Prospectus of the Encyclopædia, but furnished the original materials for a general introduction, which his friend, my uncle, Sir John Stoddart, undertook, at the desire of the proprietors, to arrange for publication, in the form in which it eventually appeared.
My uncle was led, from this circumstance, to draw up an article on Grammar, which, though hastily executed, in the intervals of a laborious profession, was deemed by Mr. Coleridge not unworthy to occupy a place in the Encyclopædia. The subject was one which had attracted the author's attention at a very early period. He was educated at the school in the Close of Salisbury, an institution attached to the Cathedral, and of which a Minor Canon, Dr. Skinner, was Master, and the Rev. E. Coleridge (an elder brother of the poet), Under Master.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fundamental principles of language, delving into the very essence of how human beings communicate. The author takes a unique approach, examining language not just as a collection of words and rules, but as a reflection of the human mind itself. Tracing the roots of language to the faculties of the intellect and will, the book delves into the inner workings of human thought. It examines how we form conceptions, make assertions, and draw conclusions, revealing the inherent logic and structure that underlies our ability to communicate. The author then explores how these mental processes manifest in different parts of speech, including nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. The book's exploration of language as a reflection of the human mind provides a fascinating look at the complex and interconnected nature of thought and expression. The author's insightful analysis of the underlying principles of language offers a fresh perspective on this timeless subject.
