Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is an extensive study of the history of linguistics. It begins by looking at the study of language in antiquity, considering the early speculative questions posed by Greek philosophers before moving through the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The book then concentrates on the 18th and 19th centuries when major developments in the field took place, such as the discovery of Sanskrit and the first attempts at a scientific approach to language. The author traces the development of the field through the work of key figures like Sir William Jones and Friedrich von Schlegel, discussing the methods they developed for comparing languages and the insights they gained into their history and evolution. The book provides a thorough and engaging account of the development of linguistics as an academic discipline, exploring its major themes and debates and explaining the significance of its insights into the nature of language and its role in human history.
