Book Description
Excerpt from French Terminologies in the Making: Studies in Conscious Contributions to the Vocabulary This dissertation, especially in the last three chapters departs somewhat, I am aware, from the type of those so far presented in this series. I trust that that is not, however, a cause for condemnation. I take this opportunity to acknowledge indebtedness for inspiration to the works of Nyrop, Darmesteter, and Dauzat as duly listed in the bibliography, and I offer this study as a tribute to those eminent masters, without, however, attempting thereby to place any responsibility for its faults upon them, but with the sole intention of doing them honor as far as its humble merits may. I have also been much assisted in the later chapters by T. Ranft's Der Einfluss der franzosischen Revolution auf den wortschatz der franzosischen sprache, which I have found a most valuable compilation of facts serving as a point of departure for many of the deductions which I have drawn. I owe to Professor H. A. Todd of Columbia University a much greater debt than I have opportunity here to do more than suggest, for his sympathetic and encouraging cooperation throughout the whole period of preparation of this work, from the very earliest moment of its inception through the final stages of the printing. Needless to say that without his constant help it would not have attained completion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Not illustrated. 1918 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VII Terminology For The Idea Of Liberty Let Us look now at the idea of liberty, of freedom. To express this idea adequately the very word liberte itself underwent tremendous changes. Think how vague, how unreal a term it was before the Revolution, like the concept it represented; how remote from daily experience. Liberty, the philosophers had talked of it as they had once discussed determinism or grace, but how rarely it was on the common man's tongue! But now! Now it is on every one's lips. The meaner the man the more often he uses the word. What definiteness it has acquired! What vividness! What real concepts it now delimits within its field, what clear-cut images it now arouses in every mind the moment it is pronounced! And, too, the word revolution. This word also had always existed. There had been revolutions in Rome, in England. There had been one only recently in America. The word was known, was used on occasion, like such a word, say, as phalanx or centurion, but the occasions were rare. And then all of a sudden one day a king is told, "Une revolte? C'est une revolution!" And the word commences its whirlwind career. "Une revolution? C'est LA Revolution!" Its article is changed from the indefinite to the definite. It acquires a capital R if not capitals throughout. It becomes a proper noun. From being the mere general name of a political movement, a word on a par with 'battle' or 'war' or 'invasion, ' the mere synonym, more or less exact, of 'revolie, sedition, insurrection, rebellion, ' it now becomes one of the most individual of words, one of the most powerful. He who could say now "La Revolution, c'est moi," would wield a greater, a more violent power than had he who said "L'Etat, c'est moi." "La Revolution" in...
