Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philosophical Grammar of the English Language: In Connection With the Laws of Matter and of Thought, Deduced From the English Language Alone, Without Regard to the Grammatical Principles of Other Tongues The author of the following pages, deems it due to himself, to give the reasons which induced him to attempt authorship, in a department of science not inseparably connected with his vocation as a Christian minister. He was disabled, by a providential affection, from pursuing the regular duties of his calling, and found it necessary, for the support ofa helpless and dependent family, to commence instructing youth. In this employment, he had an opportunity of testing the practical results of what he conceived to be the true principles of English grammar; and found by present ing those principles directly to the mind, unencumbered by the labored classifications of the old grammars, he could im part a more perfect knowledge of grammar to his pupils, and that too, in much less time, than he could by pursuing the usual course of instruction. He also found, that the la bor of memorising was greatly abridged, by the conciseness of his classifications; and his mnemonical chart so assisted the memory, that the subject could be presented to the mind immediately, without any previous memorising.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The General Principles of Language: Or, the Philosophy of Grammar The study of Grammar has been so constantly pursued in a manner almost purely mechanical, that both teachers and pupils seem to have generally forgotten that any theory or philosophical basis can exist on which its great general principles arc founded. It is true that the usage of each particular language will always guide and govern the practice of that language; but besides this, the facts that words represent ideas, and that the connexions between ideas in the mind must be indicated by corresponding connexions in the words, afford a common basis for the great general rules which are identical in all languages. Tho following treatise is an attempt to explain and illustrate these general principles - to show how they originate in the operations of the mind, and to what extent they are necessarily identical in all languages. It is not intended to introduce these considerations to the exclusion of the practical rules which operate in immediate connexion with the usage of any language, but rather to explain, so far as possible, the origin of these rules, and thereby afford a more accurate and precise means of examining the analysis of sentences, the nature of words, and their syntactical arrangement.

Excerpt: ... me and tham are here in the Saxon dative case. Me. thinks, it seems to me, mini videtur. RULE II. A name, a nominative case or a sentence joined with a participle of the present tense, may stand in construction without a verb, forming the Case absolute, or Clause independent; as "Jesus had conveyed himself away, a multitude being in that place." John 5. 13. Here multitude, the name, joined with being, stands without a verb. " By memory we conceive heat or light, yellow or sweet, the object being removed." Locke 2. 10, " I have, notwithstanding this discouragement, attempted a dictionary of the English language." Johnson's Preface. " Whatever substance begins to exist, it must, during in existence, necessarily be the same." Locke 2. 27.-28. " The penalty shall be fine and imprisonment, any law or custom to the contrary notwithstanding." The latter phraseology is peculiar to the technical law style. In no other case, does notwithstanding follow the sentence. But this position makes no difference in the true construction, which is, " any law or custom to the contrary not opposing"--the real clause independent. It is very common, when this participle agrees with a number of words, or a whole clause, to omit the whole except the participle; and in this use of notwithstanding, we have a striking proof of the value of abbreviations in language. For example; " Moses said, let no man leave of it till the morning. Notwithstanding, they hearkened not unto Moses." Ex. 16. 20. Here notwithstanding stands without the clause to which it belongs; to complete the sense in words, it would be necessary to repeat the whole preceding clause or the substance of it--" Moses said, let no man leave of it until the morning. Notwithstanding this command of Moses, ...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philosophy of Language: Comprising Universal Grammar, or the Pure Science of Language; And Glossology, or the Historical Relations of Languages The present work was originally composed for the Encyclopaedia Metropolitana, a publication which was designed to have been produced under the editorial care of the late Samuel Taylor Coleridge. That accomplished scholar, distinguished poet, and proiound metaphysician, was unfortunately prevented by ill health, and other adverse circumstances, from carrying the intended editorship into effect. He, however, not only devised the comprehensive plan which was described in the Prospectus of the Encyclopaedia, but furnished the original materials for a general introduction, which his friend, my uncle, Sir John Stoddart, undertook, at the desire of the proprietors, to arrange for publication, in the form in which it eventually appeared. My uncle was led, from this circumstance, to draw up an article on Grammar, which, though hastily executed, in the intervals of a laborious profession, was deemed by Mr. Coleridge not unworthy to occupy a place in the Encyclopaedia. The subject was one which had attracted the author's attention at a very early period. He was educated at the school in the Close of Salisbury, an institution attached to the Cathedral, and of which a Minor Canon, Dr. Skinner, was Master, and the Rev. E. Coleridge (an elder brother of the poet), Under Master. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
