Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The North American Review, Vol. 74 This work, which has now been some ten years before the public, bids fair to produce a revolution in the mode of treating English Grammar. Lowth and Murray, - the latter an American by birth, - had reduced the grammar of our language to a sort of technical system, which had been very generally received. Harris had enriched it with philosophical elucidations and reflections. All these works were founded chiefly on classical ideas and classical models. New grammars had been published in England and in this country; but they were, for the most part, but amplifications, emendations, repetitions, or abridgments of Lowth and Lindley Murray. The nearest approximation to real progress had been made in the Practical and Philosophical Grammar of our own Webster; which, however, followed too zealously the leading of Home Tooke, and, withal, was somewhat too highly tinctured by that spirit of radical and reckless innovation which was always the author´s beset ting sin.
