Part of the Otto Jespersen collected English Writings Collection

Originally published in 1894, this volume is to a certain extent an English translation of Jespersen’s ‘Studier over Engelske Kasus, med en Indledning: Freniskridt i Sproget’, which was presented to the University of Copenhagen in February 1891 on the development of the English language, but with some notable revisions when translated into English.
