Excerpt from System of Punctuation
The following pages contain substantially the notes of a lecture delivered to several classes in the University. They are printed, both in order to save time in giving my own instruction, and in the hope that this method of presenting the subject may recommend itself to others.
I have tried different plans of initiating students of composition into the mystery of Punctuation. The least successful has been that which rested on usage: the most successful, the one presented here. Even a compromise, which stated the general principles now contended for, and then sent the student to our literature for models, was less productive of results than this effort to deduce a few rules from the fundamental truths of the subject.

System of Punctuation (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book establishes a versatile system of punctuation founded on the very nature of language to create a high degree of consistency and uniformity in the elusive art of punctuation. The author dissects foundational concepts in grammar to navigate the complexities of punctuation beyond mere empirical usage and toward a more scientific approach rooted in the principles that govern language. The work pushes the boundaries of existing empirical systems by introducing clear rules based on exhaustive analysis rather than the limitations of tradition and opinion. These rules not only stand alone as irrefutable truths but also cohere with one another in a logical sequence that ensures their practical application. The book is vital for any serious user of the written word and boldly asserts that, when wielded with precision, punctuation becomes an essential tool for the precise transmission of complex ideas. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332348947_0
