Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Glossary of Terms and Phrases THE "Glossary´ of Terms and Phrases" is intended to bring together such words, expressions, quotations, etc., English or other, as arc among the more uncommon in current literature, and require, not for the scientific but for the ordinary reader, explanations, for the want of which the meaning of a sentence or a paragraph, even the drift of an argument, is often missed; explanations, moreover, not to be obtained without reference to, and perhaps tedious search among, a large and varied number of books, many of them not easily accessible. In short, the editor indulges the hope that this Glossary may supply all the information needed by general readers, who may wish to have a fair understanding of the text of any work in ordinary English literature. Of these terms and expressions some arc purely, some are more or less technical and scientific; some arc simply uncommon; some contain allusions mythological, historical, geographical; some fall under a very large class, which must be styled miscellaneous; some belong to other languages than our own. But in explaining the words themselves, no attempt has been made to enter further than is necessary into the nature of the things named. At the same time, the amount of genera! added to glossarial information must necessarily be very different in different eases.
