Synopsis
Excerpt from The Elements of Anglo-Saxon Grammar, With Copious Notes: Illustrating the Structure of the Saxon and the Formation of the English Language
Early associations and impressions are seldom entirely removed. From our youth, we have been taught to look upon the Greeks, and Romans, as the most learned and polished people. A long acquaintance with writers of both nations, renders us familiar with their history; and, in riper years, when these people are named, our youthful feelings and veneration are recalled, and our imaginations dwell with delight on the pleasure we have derived from the company of our old classical friends. In the same proportion as we have admired and revered the Greeks and Romans, we have been led to disregard and despise the Goths, for raising the standard of liberty upon the ruins of the Roman empire. We have insensibly imbibed the opinions of the Roman authors which we have read, and, with the name of Goths, have constantly associated every species of ignorance, cruelty, and barbarity; not considering that we, as Englishmen, are indebted to the descendants of the Gothic tribes for our existence, our language, and our laws.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers on a journey through the history and significance of the Anglo-Saxon language. The author delves into the origins of the language, tracing its roots back to the ancient tribes who settled in Britain. The book explores how the language evolved, shaped by the arrival of the Romans, the Danish invasions, and the Norman Conquest. The author argues that the Anglo-Saxon language is far more than just a historical curiosity. It provides a foundation for understanding modern English, offering insights into the structure and nuances of our everyday speech. Through detailed analysis of the language, the author reveals how Anglo-Saxon words and grammatical structures continue to influence modern English. This book also examines the broader cultural and political significance of the Anglo-Saxon language. It highlights the role of the Anglo-Saxons in shaping British law, government, and even religion. The author argues that a deeper understanding of this ancient language can shed light on the roots of English identity and the unique characteristics of British society. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
