Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of language, offering a unique perspective on its nature and significance. It goes beyond merely collecting facts about language to explore its profound connection to human thought, culture, and history. The author challenges the notion that language is an innate biological function, arguing instead that it is a cultural invention, a system of symbols shaped by social usage and historical development. The exploration extends beyond the familiar realm of spoken words to encompass diverse forms of communication, including writing, sign language, and even Morse code, revealing the underlying structures that connect them all. The book delves into the building blocks of language, examining the relationship between sounds, words, and concepts. It investigates how languages evolve over time, highlighting the influence of factors such as phonetic shifts and cultural contact. The author emphasizes the intricate interplay between language, race, and culture, debunking the misconception that they are inherently linked. The book also sheds light on the role of language in literature, exploring how its inherent features shape style and prosody. By illuminating the multifaceted nature of language, this book offers valuable insights into the human experience, revealing how our capacity for symbolic communication has shaped our thoughts, our societies, and our understanding of the world around us. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330082058_0
