Selected Writings of Otto Jespersen (Routledge Revivals)

<p>This volume first published in 1960 to commemorate the one hundredth birthday of Jespersen collects together as many of his writings as possible in order to allow students of the English language or indeed of language in general to read those shorter papers which have hitherto escaped their notice. The layout of the book largely follows the nature of the subjects dealt with: English grammar phonetics history of English language teaching language in general international language and miscellaneous papers.</p>
