Not illustrated. 1894 edition. Excerpt: ...times. The whole situation of a story, its historical setting, should be made transparent to the minds of children, and it is impossible for them to understand the complex movements of armies in a great national struggle, much less the state of government, legislation, and finance, inseparably connected therewith. Thirdly, they should exhibit the lives of men of high character and purpose, such as impress the mind with generous thoughts. In the main, therefore, these stories must be selected from the narrow field of exploration and first settlement, before society had assumed complex forms, while commerce, manner of living, and government were still in their simplest beginnings. In any given part of the country, as in Massachusetts or California, the period of exploration and pioneer life was brief, but in the history of the United States and of North America as a whole it has lasted from the time of Columbus down almost to the present. In all its stages it has been a period of hardship and danger, calling out the most adventurous spirits and putting men of large physical and moral calibre under the necessity of exhibiting in bold relief their individual traits. Such men were La Salle, Boone, Penn, Clarke, and Lincoln. No other country has had such a pioneer history, such a race of men as the early Friends, the Virginians, the Puritans, the French, the ScotchIrish, pushing westward to subdue and civilize a continent. The early history of England, Germany, or Italy, is hid in myth or savage warfare, The Spanish explorers and conquerors of the New World teach us mostly lessons of cruelty, rapine, and inordinate love of gold. They serve as warning rather than as example. But the best nations of Europe were sifted by persecution in order to...

Martinus Nijhoff

In a long dead language isolate such as Hurrian, grammatical studies are replete with difficulties. The paucity of material and our inability to compare it to modern, well-documented languages typically results in more questions than answers. Many posited answers to these questions lead inevitably to dead ends. Studies in languages such as Hurrian run the risk of either stagnating due to an adherence to the status quo by scholars or fragmenting when no two scholars can (or will) agree on any point. In this book, Campbell has in many ways broken with tradition in an attempt to go beneath the surface and reveal further complexities in Hurrian grammar. This work, the first English-language monograph on Hurrian since 1941, is not a dogmatic treatise meant to counter the status quo but an exploration of the complexities of the Hurrian language from a new perspective. His conclusions may challenge present perceptions, but the hope is that they will in turn inspire challenges, for it is only in this way that our understanding of this wonderful language and the people who spoke it can be furthered.
Mood and Modality in Hurrian provides a formal and functional analysis of the Hurrian modal morphemes. Unlike the better-known Semitic and Indo-European languages of the ancient Near East, Hurrian has a rich complement of modal endings. This at-times bewildering variety in form and function of modal morphemes in Hurrian has been a largely unstudied topic. Although it has been touched upon in a number of studies, it has not received a detailed treatment until now.
Beyond a philological treatment of a dead language, Campbell also adds to the accumulated knowledge of ergativity. This book explores the interplay between ergativity and modality in Hurrian. Furthermore, Campbell explores the issue of voice in Hurrian and its relation to modality.
