Book Description
Excerpt from Life and Public Services of Hon. Wm; E. Gladstone: Containing a Full Account of the Most Celebrated Orator and Statesman of Modern Times, Comprising the Graphic Story of His Life; His Brilliant Genius and Remarkable Traits of Character; Grand Achievements as a Leader and Prime Minister; His Magnificent Tr No other Englishman of the past or the present has been more popular in this country than Mr. Gladstone. This feeling in his behalf docs not spring altogether from an admiration for his intellectual abilities, or the broad and statesmanlike views entertained by him. Nor has it arisen only from sympathy with the liberality of his opinions. It is rather traceable to a sincere respect for his capacity for growth. We might easily elaborate this proposition by historical references; but the field is too broad for thorough inspection at the present moment, and a cursory glance would be worse than useless. Believing that it is this quality which has made him not only respected, but worthy of respect, it has been the aim of the writer to trace the progress, year by year, from the most pronounced Toryism to an equally positive Liberalism. At the same time there has been no effort made to fit the facts to the theory, as is sometimes done under similar circumstances, for the simple reason that nothing of the kind was necessary. There are a number of biographies of Mr. Gladstone, of more or less value, to which the writer begs leave to express indebtedness. Chief among them is the careful work of Mr. G. B. Smith, in whose two large octavo volumes there is almost everything needful. A "London Journalist" contributes another biography, which has not, however, been brought down later than the second administration of its subject; the same limitation is applicable to the volume of Mr. G. R. Emerson. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Similative and Equative Constructions
Author: Yvonne Treis
Publisher: John Benjamins Publishing Company
ISBN: 9027265976
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
While comparative constructions have been extensively studied in the past decades, the expression of equality and similarity has so far attracted little attention in the typological literature. The fifteen contributions assembled in this volume study similative and equative constructions in typologically and genetically distant languages, albeit with a focus on Africa, and from a range of perspectives. Purely synchronically oriented case studies are supplemented by contributions that also shed light on the diachronic development of similative and equative constructions in language contact situations. Sources of similative morphemes and lexically expressed concepts of likeness are examined, and little-known multifunctionality patterns and grammaticalisation targets of similative morphemes – such as purpose clause markers, modality morphemes and markers of glottonyms – are discussed. Based on a sample of 119 languages worldwide, a new typology of equative constructions is proposed. The book should be of interest to typologists, semanticists, specialists of grammaticalization, historical linguistics and syntax.
