TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE.

6

AN apology is perhaps due for the title of this translation. Of the alternative renderings 'Glottology' and the more familiar and for better or worse established Philology' I have with some hesitation chosen the latter; and in the text, wherever they occur, the words 'glottologo' and 'filologo' appear as philologist' and 'scholar' respectively.

The epithet Aryan' as against Indo-European' or 'Indo-Germanic' I felt I had no right to alter.

In making the translation I have had the advantages of the author's latest corrections and additions. Any remarks of my own have been given in foot-notes enclosed in square brackets. In many of the quotations from other than Italian writers I have sought where opportunity offered to ensure a faithful representation of the sense by consulting the originals.
