Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This is a boxed set of six volumes that will require additional postage. List price - Amazon - $1,640.00. "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 corre…sponding period in France, continental influences are still reflected. 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 realization that Indo-European languages are very much related - a discovery with important cultural and religious implications. The definitive edition of each book has been selected for this collection. The six volumes include "Hermes of a Philosophical Inquiry Concerning Universal Grammar" (1786) by James Harris "The Diversions of Purley" (1829) by John Horne Tooke "A Course of Lectures on the Theory of Language and Universal Grammar" (1762) by Joseph Priestly "The Theory of Language" (1788) and "Of the Origin and General Nature of Speech Of Universal Grammar" by James Beattie and "A Dissertation on the Origin of Language" (1788) by Adam Smith".
