    Hardcover. Condition: Fair. [A Classic Work in Linguistics] Sixth edition, 1901. Bound in publisher's cloth. Tears to edges. Gutters weakened. Sold with all faults. "Language and the Study of Language by William Dwight Whitney is a foundational 1867 book that introduced key principles of linguistic science, particularly German philological theories, to an English-speaking audience through twelve lectures. It covers the nature of language, its evolution, its connection to thought, and methods of analysis (phonetics, morphology, syntax, semantics), arguing for linguistics as a social science. The work is considered a seminal text in the history of linguistics, making complex ideas accessible and providing a historical perspective on the field.".
