The Tongues of Men and Speech

Abstract

The Tongues of Man and Speech are easily readable and written in a clear and expository style, befitting their intention as introductory, popular works. They contain an exposition on the nature of speech and language in terms which are still useful and relevant. These two volumes give an introduction to linguistics in general and also supply the key to Firth's linguistics in particular and, by extension, to much of current British linguistics as a whole.
