Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - A meticulous, humane record of a vanishing tongue. Language lives at the margins. C. Smart's Second Edition gathers attentive observations of the speech recorded among English Gypsies in nineteenth-century England, the result of Victorian language research that balances precision with human interest. Written with an eye to comparison, the volume sits at the intersection of English dialect studies and Romani language reference, offering careful lexical notes and contextual commentary that reward both casual curiosity and scholarly enquiry. The prose is economical and evidence-led; the book's pragmatic methodology anticipates later fieldwork without sacrificing readability.As a linguistic anthropology book and a language history resource, Smart's study speaks directly to those tracing gypsy language origins and to researchers of minority languages in Britain. It preserves voices often absent from mainstream archives and supplies material for comparative linguistics guide and analysis without dense jargon. The work illuminates facets of British Romani culture, records social usage, and exposes the methodological assumptions of its era, making it of real interest to historical language enthusiasts and a welcome addition to any academic linguistics collection. Its empirical observations and comparative remarks still provide useful source material across disciplines - from folklore and philology to modern sociolinguistics - and make the text adaptable for both classroom discussion and solitary reading.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. Accessible to the curious and rigorous enough for specialists, this Second Edition sits comfortably between cultural history and disciplined study, inviting both general readers and classic-literature collectors alike to explore an influential record of language and culture. Collectors interested in classic literature, social history and linguistic scholarship find both provenance and contextual detail rewarding; casual readers encounter vivid cultural detail alongside disciplined analysis.…
