A GRAMMAR OF THE LATIN LANGUAGE.
By C. G. ZUMPT, Professor in the University of Berlin.
Translated from the German, with additions, by the
REV. JOHN KENRICK, M. A.
Second Edition, corrected and enlarged. 8vo. 10s. 6d.
"Much, indeed, is it to be lamented, that men of sound learning are so little inclined to devote their time to the amelioration of elementary books; for it is essential that the young scholar should meet with such facilities and elucidations, in ipso limine, as may enable him to continue his classical career with a clear comprehension of his subject, or at least an intimate acquaintance with its principles. Yet how is this to be attained unless those who are thoroughly versed in every branch of classical lore will contribute their valuable aid in digesting and arranging such a work, as shall combine perspicuity in the developement of general principles with copiousness of examples, and still keep in view the brevity which is essential to younger readers?—That such a plan is perfectly feasible, is demonstrated by the production of Professor Zumpt; which, without unnecessary periphrastic remarks, is incomparably more diffuse and abundant in its explanations than any similar book in general use at our public schools. . . . . The subject of declensions has been, in all our grammars, most imperfectly and superficially explained. The superiority of M. Zumpt's plan is almost self-evident. He lays down certain general principles, and thoroughly clears away the mass of rubbish which encumbers the usual system. . . . . Another advantage is derivable from M. Zumpt's Grammar, viz. the perspicuous manner in which he describes the genders of the declensions. . . . . It is not, however, in one but in almost every instance that M. Zumpt displays the superiority of his system. . . . . Mr. Kenrick, the ingenious translator, states, in his preface, that the work has received several additions. He also remarks, in a note, that the section on the Roman reckoning is adscititious. From whatever source the information may have been derived, it is surely of the highest importance. . . . . In the remainder of this valuable work, the author considers the reckoning of money, and fractional parts; and the two concluding sections are appropriated to quantity and accentuation. They do not in the slightest degree derogate from the general merits of the book, which is far superior to any existing grammar that we know. . . . . To indiscriminate enlogy we are always averse; but this is a production which cannot be too strongly recommended."—Monthly Review, December, 1824.
