Excerpt from The Position of the Slavonic Languages at the Present An Inaugural Lecture Delivered Before the University of Oxford, November 29, 1910History and geography tell us that the Slavonic lan guages on the whole are spoken to-day over a far greater area than they were 1000 years ago, but also that the general position and shape of that area have considerably changed. Some of the Slavonic languages have waxed, others have waned some are moribund, others are obsolete. A language is like any other organism, it cannot remain passive stagnation means death, it must either grow or decay, expand or recede, and the history of the Slavonic languages furnishes instructive proof of this inevitable law.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
