Produktbeschreibung
Hermes: Or A Philosophical Inquiry Concerning Universal Grammar is a book written by James Harris in 1786. It is a philosophical investigation into the nature of language and its relationship to thought and reality. The book explores the idea that there is a universal grammar that underlies all languages, and that this grammar is innate to the human mind. Harris argues that language is not just a tool for communication, but is also a fundamental aspect of human cognition. He examines the structure and function of language, and discusses the ways in which it reflects and shapes our understanding of the world. The book is divided into four parts, each of which explores a different aspect of language and its relationship to philosophy. Part one discusses the nature of language and its relationship to thought, while part two explores the idea of a universal grammar. Part three examines the relationship between language and reality, and part four looks at the role of language in human culture and society. The book is considered a seminal work in the field of linguistics and has had a significant impact on the study of language and philosophy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
