5.0 out of 5 stars
Basis of Western Linguistics,
By MariaPiera Candotti (Italy) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A comparative grammar of the Sanskrit, Zend, Greek, Latin, Lithuanian, Gothic, German, and Sclavonic languages (Documenta semiotica) (Hardcover)
It is surely out of date, nowdays, but it has been, (from 1816!) one of the basis of Western Linguistics. How do you rate Aristotele's «Physics»? Five stars for the value of scientific heritage!

Only a historical value,

This book, first published in German first half of the 19th century was THE reference at the time in the world of comparative grammar. It is a huge masterpiece. But readers, attention: this book has only a HISTORICAL value. If you are a HISTORIAN of comparative grammar and wish to study the evolution of the linguistic techniques, then buy it or read it. But the scientific information in this book dating back to the 19th century, unfortunately, are no longer up to date.

I should add that this book is divided into several large tomes, and that - this might catch the attention of beautiful books amateurs - special fonts had been created at the time to type this book, for example unique sanskrit fonts.
