Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the intricate relationship between language and its use, aiming to establish a clear and accessible framework for understanding and improving written and spoken communication. Drawing on the work of earlier thinkers, the author delves into the principles of good use, outlining the importance of clarity, accuracy, and elegance in language. The author examines the role of custom and tradition in shaping language, recognizing that while established usage holds significant weight, it is not infallible. He presents a series of canons of criticism designed to guide the reader in making informed decisions about language choices, considering factors like the evolution of meaning, the presence of synonyms, and the overall harmony of expression. The bookââ â¢s insights on the nature of language and its proper use remain relevant today, offering valuable guidance to anyone seeking to communicate effectively and engage in thoughtful discourse.
