Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes a critical look at the history of English grammar instruction, focusing on the influential works of Lily and Murray. The author argues that these popular grammar texts, despite their widespread use, are riddled with errors and inconsistencies. By examining the shortcomings of these books, the author reveals the challenges inherent in teaching grammar and highlights the importance of originality and accuracy in grammatical scholarship. The author delves into the historical context of grammar instruction in England, tracing the evolution of grammar books from Lily's work, which was mandated by Henry VIII, to the widely-used texts of Murray. The book explores the evolution of grammar teaching, showing how reliance on previous authors, rather than original thought, led to a perpetuation of errors. Through detailed analysis of specific examples, the author reveals a surprising degree of inaccuracy and inconsistency within the established grammar texts. This exploration challenges the reader to consider the role of authority in learning and to question commonly accepted practices. The book ultimately argues for a renewed focus on original scholarship and a critical approach to the study of grammar. The author's insightful critique provides a valuable framework for understanding the complexities of language and its instruction. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282046552_0
