A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Tills Essay, independently of its intrinsic worth, merits great praise, as being the first regular attempt to explain the principles of Welsh Syntax. In giving definitions of points belonging to miiversal Grammar, and in exhibiting correspondence of idiom between theW elsh and theL atin and Greek languages, much help was also derived from Zumpt, Key, A rnold, Matthice, and Kuhner. All will allow that a Welsh Grammar, superior to any of those that have been hitherto pubH shed, is very much needed; but whether the present Work surpasses its predecessors, mvist be determined by the reader. It wiU be seen, there is no doubt, that many deficiencies exist in this production, and that its shortcomings are niunerous. However, should a second edition be called for, it is hoped that these deficiencies may be amended, mistakes rectified, and many observations added which have now been omitted, owing partly to want of time, and partly to want of knowledge. And with this view it would be deemed a kindness if Welsh critics would, either publicly or privately, favour me Aith hints, emendations, and remarks, so that I may be enabled to send forth a second edition more systematic, more perfect, and more complete. It is my duty to state that I am imder very great obligations to the I tev. Thomas Briscoe, B. D., Vice-P rincipal and Tutor of Jesus College, Oxford, for the kind assistance he has rendered me, both in looking over theW ork before it was sent to the Printer, and in correcting the proof-sheets while passing through the press. Were it not for him, and the Rev. William Briscoe, M. A., Fellow of Jesus College, it is doubtful whether the book would ever have been published: and if the reader derives any benefit from the Grammar, he, no doubt, wU ljoin me in acknowledging our gratitude to these two Gentlemen.
