Excerpt from The Phonographic Reader: A Complete Course of Inductive Reading Lessons in Phonography
We flatter ourselves, however, that from the fact that our Introduction is nearly the only part of the book intelligible to the uninitiated, it will receive more attention than many superior productions.
As Phonography is a new art, based upon a new science, (phonetics,) or if not a new science, one at least which has been but lately applied to practical purposes; as it is rapidly gaining ground in public estimation, firmly maintaining every inch of ground it has gained,' and bidding fair to obtain a permanent footing in all the public schools of the United States, as a regular branch of education, the student will be pleased, at this early period of the reform, to get all the light he can on the subject; and those who intend to instruct others, will not, we are sure, be displeased with the suggestions headed Hints to Teachers,' page 17.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book is a primer for those new to phonography, a simplified, phonetic writing system. The author, an advocate for phonography and other significant reforms of the time, explains the history and principles of phonography, and provides guided practice for readers as they learn the system. The author presents phonography both as an end in itself, for those who wish to quickly and clearly record their thoughts and ideas, and as a pathway toward the adoption of phonotypy, a simplified printing system which the author believes could bring about greater literacy and accessibility to the written word. This book is a fascinating historical document for those interested in the evolution of written language and the history of educational reform movements, and a practical guide to learning and using phonography.
