The Seven Liberal Arts were formalized in the Fifth Century A.D. One of these original and ancient seven is the complex art of language, and more specifically grammar. Grammar is much more than what was drummed into you in primary school. Grammar is the root of how we speak and understanding one another. Compiled in this volume is a chronicle of the history and use of grammar and linguistics, an overview of the theories about grammar and how we learn language, and details of the Theoretical, Descriptive, and Applied Linguistics branches. We also touch lightly on the style guides and copy editors in use today.
Project Webster represents a new publishing paradigm, allowing disparate content sources to be curated into cohesive, relevant, and informative books. To date, this content has been curated from Wikipedia articles and images under Creative Commons licensing, although as Project Webster continues to increase in scope and dimension, more licensed and public domain content is being added. We believe books such as this represent a new and exciting lexicon in the sharing of human knowledge.
