Excerpt from Modern Language Teaching, Vol. 12This subject requires careful handling in any book professing to teach Russian, and must be copiously furnished with well-selected examples.In studying and discussing this matter, there is brought home to us one great benefit derived from an intelligent study of language. If we are not merely 'parrot linguists, we cannot help real izing that each separate language known to man represents a definite, distinct, and peculiar attitude to the external and internal worlds, or, rather, a collection of ideas, wishes, and emotions called forth or set up by these worlds, and embodies for this purpose the social and individual consciousness of a distinct community. Every language, therefore, expresses in its own way the 'nationalism' of its present Speakers, as well as the surviving experiences of the past generations. Who, then, remembering this, will not treat all languages with additional respect.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
