Excerpt from The Sounds and History of the German Language No apology 18 needed for an attempt to write an intro duction to the Phonetics and History of the German Language that is simple enough to be intelligible to stu dents without linguistic erudition, and at the same time sufficiently comprehensive to meet to a reasonable degree the requirements of the teacher of German. Phonetics and historical grammar have at last come into their own as legitimate and indispensable elements of the training of foreign language teachers, but a text-book for these subjects adjusted to the complicated needs of our colleges has so far been a desideratum.

Excerpt from Phonetics of the New High German Language The position in which these organs are in quiet and regular breathing, wherewith no speaking can take place, is called the position of indifference (indifferenzlage). This position can also be termed organic basis (artikulationsbasis), because it forms the natural foundation for the different arti culations of the apparatus of speech. With the German or ganie basis the tongue is not so much lowered, retracted, and flattened as with the English organic basis; nor is in the former case the tongue hollowed in front. Whilst with the English the lips remain fairly inactive and are only slightly rounded, the Germans have an inclination to round them considerably and to pout them. On these fundamental differences between the German and the English organic bases chiefly depend the differences between the German and the English sounds, especially vowels; cf. 23 note 2. 37 note 2. 40 note. 43 note. 63 note 2. 67 note.

Excerpt from A History of the German Language If this volume contributes somewhat to the better knowledge of a language, which, in my opinion, embodies a larger number of excellencies than any other of ancient or modern times, except the Greek, I Shall feel that my labor has not been in vain. I am not unaware that we have a number of American scholars whose attainments in Germanic Philology are much superior to mine, and who are in position to pro duce a better book than this. As they have not, however, thus far undertaken the task, at least so far as the public is informed, I am led to put forth this modest work in the hope that it may, at least, prepare the way for something more excellent.

Excerpt from Outlines of a History of the German Language It must further be pointed out that before an English reader can peruse it advantageously, he must possess some knowledge of German, otherwise many of the illustrations will be meaningless to him.
