Book Description

Excerpt from An Introduction to Old French This book contains no independent research and little scientific method. Suggested by some acquaintance with the difficulties of students who begin to read Old French, it has been written for the convenience of candidates for the l.l.a. Title of St. Andrews University, and perchance may be found useful by students working under the Cam bridge University scheme for a tripos in Mediaeval and Modern Languages. Professor Crombie, of St. Andrews, for his kind encouragement, and Mr. G. Saintsbury, for a timely hint regarding the scope of this work, have my thanks.
