Inhaltsangabe

"Lectures On the Science of Language" by Friedrich Max MÃ1/4ller, delivered at the Royal Institution of Great Britain in 1861, represents a pivotal moment in the development of modern linguistics. This collection of lectures explores the burgeoning field of comparative philology, tracing the historical relationships between languages and laying the groundwork for a scientific understanding of language evolution.

MÃ1/4ller's work delves into the origins of language, examining the connections between Indo-European languages and proposing theories about the development of linguistic families. These lectures offer insights into the intellectual landscape of the 19th century, reflecting the era's fascination with historical connections and scientific inquiry. Though some of the theories presented have been superseded by modern linguistic research, the work remains a valuable historical document, showcasing the early development of linguistic science and its lasting impact on the study of language.
