Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the principles of harmony in language, focusing on the role of tone and time in creating the distinctive character of speech. The author, an expert in linguistics, traces the historical development of theories on the harmony of language, from ancient Greek and Latin texts to the present day, providing a comprehensive overview of the field. The book delves into the diverse properties of syllables, explaining how the combination of quantity (duration) and accent (emphasis) gives rise to the rhythm and melody of speech. Through careful analysis of English phonetics, the author reveals the nuanced interplay of these elements in shaping the meaning and emotional impact of language. The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of these principles in various forms of spoken and written communication, shedding light on the essential role of harmony in the art of language. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
