A New Latin Grammar
by E. A. Sonnenschein
Excerpt from A New Latin Grammar
This volume and the companion volume of my French grammar are based upon the work of the Joint Committee on Grammatical Terminology whose final Report was issued last year; and they are designed to make the Committee's scheme of grammar teaching available for use in schools. It is a matter of great satisfaction to observe the rapid progress of the movement to which the Committee devoted so much labour; since the publication of our Report the recommendations contained in it have been adopted either in their entirety or with some modifications by the writers of at least four English grammars, and it seems to be generally recognized that the terminology and classifications recommended by the Committee constitute a real advance in the direction of simplicity and uniformity in the teaching of grammar.
So far no Latin or French grammar has appeared on these lines; but the Committee's work is expressly designed to include in its scope the grammar of other languages besides English, and so to secure that the grammatical doctrine taught to pupils shall be all of a piece. It is as a contribution to this movement that I have undertaken the task of writing t+he present books.
