The Study of Tongues is a book written by Roger Bacon, a 13th-century English philosopher and Franciscan friar. The book explores the study of languages and their origins, as well as the importance of language in human communication and understanding. Bacon discusses various aspects of language, including grammar, syntax, and pronunciation, and provides examples from different languages to illustrate his points. He also delves into the relationship between language and thought, arguing that language shapes our perceptions and understanding of the world around us. The Study of Tongues is a fascinating exploration of language and its significance in human society, and remains a valuable resource for scholars and students of linguistics and philosophy.THIS 48 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Opus Majus of Roger Bacon Part 1, by Roger Bacon.
