A New Grammar of the Modern Italian Language
Excerpt from A New Grammar of the Modern Italian Language
To make a book really useful it ought to be written with a special regard to the kind of persons whose patro nage it seeks, their age, the stock of kindred knowledge they are likely to possess, the time they can devote to its study and the extent and quality of the notions they ex pect to acquire from it. And although this consideration will be found true with regard to books of any kind, yet there are scarcely any to which it more forcibly applies than to such as are intended to assist the student in the acqui sition of a foreign language. To suit my book to the wants and wishes, as well as to the average capabilities of learners was therefore my constant aim in writing this new Grammar of the Italian language, destined to complete the collection of Grammars of the modern languages issued by the publisher Karl J 11 gel in Frankfort on the Main.
