Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. The subjunctive mood in the English language has seen a decline in conversational usage over the last few centuries, prompting speculation that its significance to the language is rapidly diminishing. However, this book contends that the subjunctive mood persists not only in the fine arts and poetry but also in modern everyday speech. Its place within the language is not simply through inherited verse but as a vital tool for poets and everyday speakers alike to express emotionality, and uncertainty. The author argues that there are shades of meaning and depth of significance that simply cannot be conveyed without the use of the subjunctive, and this book provides a thorough exploration of the many and varied ways in which it is used in modern English.
