Alter, Stephen G.

SUMMARY

In the nineteenth century, philology -- especially comparative philology -- made impressive gains as a discipline, thus laying the foundation for the modern field of linguistics. In Darwinism and the Linguistic Image, Stephen G. Alter examines how comparative philology provided a genealogical model of language that Darwin, as well as other scientists and language scholars, used to construct rhetorical parallels with the common-descent theory of evolution.Alter, Stephen G. is the author of 'Darwinism and the Linguistic Image Language, Race, and Natural Theology in the Nineteenth Century' with ISBN 9780801872440 and ISBN 0801872448.
