内容説明・目次
内容説明
One of the most interesting periods in the history of British linguistic thought, the 18th century is also one of the most neglected. Richer in diversity than the corresponding period in France, there is still a reflection of continental influences. The inheritance of linguistic ideas from Graeco-Roman antiquity is prominent and there is considerable discussion on the theory of universal grammar. Growing interest in historical and comparative aspects of language study lead to the realisation that Indo-European languages are very much related - a discovery with important cultural and religious implications.
