Excerpt from Chips From a German Workshop, Vol. 4: Essays on Mythology and Folk-LoreThe systematic classification to which most myths have been submitted before they reached us, though it may be helpful in some respects, is nevertheless as likely to be misleading as a Hortas siccus would be to a botanist, if debarred from his rambles through meadows and hedges. Nothing seems more natural therefore than that in examining the various specimens of mythology, carefully collected and arranged for their inspection, different students should have felt absorbed each in his own special department, losing sight of the general character of mythology and of the surroundings in which it was formed.If we keep our eyes open to survey not only a portion, but the whole of mythology, we shall find that whatever detritus it may carry along, its original constituent elements were words and phrases about the most striking phenomena Of nature, such as day and night, dawn and evening, sun and moon, sky, earth, and sea, in their various relations to each other and to man.These snowflakes of early thought soon became hardened and changed into ice by inevitable misunderstandings, inevitable,1 I say, because, as we are now able to understand, they sprang from the very nature of language.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Chips From a German Workshop, Vol. 3German more materially than the Greek of Homer differs from the Greek of Demosthenes. Even in Ger many these languages are studied only by professional antiquarians and scholars, and they do not form part of the general system of instruction in public schools and universities. The study of Gothic grammar alone (where we still find a dual in addition to the singular and plural, and where some tenses of the pas sive are still formed, as in Greek and Latin, without auxiliary verbs), would require as much time as the study of Greek grammar, though it would not Offer the key to a literature like that of Greece. Old High German, again, is as difficult a language to a German as anglo-saxon is to an Englishman and the Middle high-german of the Nibelunge, of Wolfram, and Walther, nay even of Eckhart and Tauler, is more re mote from the language of Goethe than Chaucer is from Tennyson.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
