About this title

Synopsis

A rare bridge across Channel tongues. Clear, methodical, and surprisingly readable. Percy J. Treasure's An Introduction to Breton Grammar is a breton language grammar guide written in English for readers in Great Britain who sought literary acquaintance with their relatives and neighbours in Little Britain. Concise and direct, it frames Breton grammar with lucid explanations and comparative notes that make it more than a primer; it functions as an english-breton textbook, a compact language learning reference and a doorway into broader celtic language study. Readers interested in comparative celtic linguistics will find the book's emphasis on correspondences and contrasts particularly useful, while those exploring the atlas of british isles languages will appreciate its measured historical perspective. Practical enough for self-study, yet scholarly in tone, it serves as a reliable self-study language resource, a beginner breton course in print, and a piece of classic language instruction for collectors of historical language texts. Its economy of expression and attention to linguistic relationship make it a straightforward companion for classroom use and independent study alike. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. As a nineteenth-century language guide it illuminates language contact and cultural ties central to britain and brittany history, and it belongs in any academic language collection that values original pedagogies and sources. The work stands at the intersection of practical pedagogy and historical record; historians, linguists and enthusiasts of celtic language study will find it a candid snapshot of period methods and priorities. Casual readers can dip into its clear entries; classic-literature collectors will prize the book as both reference and cultural artefact. Worth consulting for curiosity or research. It rewards attention across disciplines and interests.
