Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Two Lectures on the Science of Language

This little book consists of two lectures delivered on August 19th and 20th, 1902, to students of the University Extension at Cambridge. In deference to the kindly expressed wish of many in my audience, and in view of the non-existence (so far as I know) of anything in English giving a purely popular introduction to the Science of Language in its latest developments, I ventured to offer the lectures to the University Press for publication, hoping that they might serve to stimulate interest in a most fascinating study, sadly neglected in this country. I was encouraged in this resolution by my friend Professor Ridgeway, who very kindly read the lectures in MS. and helped me with many suggestions. The first lecture is printed nearly as delivered; the second, which was given extempore, was written out immediately after, and follows the general lines of my notes.
