Cloth over Boards. Etat : Fair. No Dust Jacket. Revised Edition. This book, "An Elementary Grammar of the English Language," delves into the fundamental principles and structure of the English language. As a grammar textbook from the late 19th century, it reflects the pedagogical approaches and linguistic understanding of its era, likely emphasizing prescriptive rules and proper usage. Such texts were crucial in standardizing English and educating a growing populace in written and spoken communication during a period of significant social and industrial change. --- The book is co-authored by William Fewsmith and Edgar A. Singer. William Fewsmith was a known author of English grammar textbooks, with several editions of his grammar books published throughout the mid to late 19th century. Edgar A. Singer, Jr., while later becoming a prominent American philosopher and professor at the University of Pennsylvania, was born in 1873, making him quite young at the time of this book's 1880 publication. It is possible that the Edgar A. Singer listed as co-author is an earlier relative or that his contribution to this specific edition was in a more editorial or foundational capacity, given his later academic career focused on philosophy. --- For a collector, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of English language education in the United States. It represents a tangible artifact of 19th-century schooling and the methods used to teach grammar during a time when literacy and standardized language were increasingly valued. Its historical context, particularly its connection to the broader "Normal Educational Series" mentioned in the original context, suggests its role within a structured educational system of the period. The book's content would be of interest to linguists, educators, and historians studying the evolution of language instruction and the cultural significance of grammar in shaping national identity. --- CONDITION: This book is in fair condition.
