Excerpt from Comparative Study of the New High German Language, Theoretical and Practical In no branch of education have the best means of culture been more neglected than in that of the modern languages. In spite of the apathy in this direction, it is pleasing and encouraging, however, to all who aim at the accomplishment of the best purposes of education, to know that there are some at least who have been awakened to a true appreciation of these interesting vehicles of modern thought - of a civilization, which is, to a large exent, the outgrowth of Christianity, and which on this account is of higher import to us than any ever conceived in the brain or heart of Greek or Roman. This is due in no ordinary degree to the influence of the labors of such men as Maetzner (in French and English), Westphal, Grimm, Koch, Curtius, Schleicher, MuUer, Morris, Skeat, Whitney, Hoffmann, Marsh, Kehrein, March, Littré, Chavéé and others. The modern languages are valuable on account of their means of intellectual training. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
