The Jutes subdue the Picts, but then quarrelled and fought with Vortigern, and with reinforcement from the continent, settled permanently in Kent. Somewhat later the Angles established themselves in the eastern England and the Saxons in the south and west. Fighting went on for as long as a hundred C years before the Celts in Celts were all killed, driven into Wales, or reduced to slavery. This is the period of King Arthur, who was not entirely mythological.
He was a Romanized Celt, a general, though probably not a king. He had some success against the Anglo-Saxons, but it was only temporary. We have E no record of the English language until after , when the Anglo-Saxon were converted to Christianity and learned the Latin alphabets. The conversion began, to EP be precise in within thirty to forty years. The conversion was a great advance for the Anglo-Saxons, not only of the spiritual benefits but also because it re-established contact with what remained of Roman civilization.
Old English runs from the earliest record-i. In the century after the conversion the most advanced kingdom was Northumbrians, the area between the Humber River and the Scottish border. By C. E the Northumbrians had developed a respectable civilization, the 11 All rights reserved. It is sometimes called the Northumbian Renaissance, and it was the first of the several renaissance through which Europe struggled upward out of the ruins of the Roman Empire.
It was in this period that the best of the Old English literature was written, including the epic poem Beowulf. A century later center shifted again, and Wessex, the country of the West Saxons, became the leading power.
The most famous king of the West Saxons was Alfred the Great, who reigned in the second half of the ninth century, dying in He was famous not only as a military man and administrator but also as a champion of learning. He founded and supported schools and translated or caused to be translated many books from Latin into English. At this time also much of the Northumbian literature of two PY centuries earlier was copied in West Saxons.
Indeed, the great bulk of Old English writing which has come down to us is the West Saxon dialect of or later. In the ninth and tenth centuries, the O Norsemen emerged in their ships from their homeland in Denmark and the Scandinavian Peninsula.
They travelled and attacked and plundered at their will and almost with impunity. Nor they overlooked England. There was nothing much to oppose them except the Wessex power led by Alfred.
The long struggle ended in with a treaty by which a line was drawn roughly from the northwest of England to the E southwest. On the eastern side of the line, Norse rule was to prevail. This was called the Danelaw. The western side was to be governed by Wessex. EP 17 The linguistic result of all this was a considerable injection of Norse into the English language.
Norse was at this time not so different from English as Norwegian or Danish is now. Probably the speakers of English could understand, more or less, the language of the new comers who had moved into eastern England. D At any rate, there was considerable interchange and word borrowing. Examples of Norse words in the English language are sky, give, law, egg, outlaw, leg, ugly, scant, crawl, scowl, take, thrust.
There are hundreds more. We have even borrowed some pronouns from Norse-they, their, and them. These words were borrowed first by the eastern and northern dialects and then in the course of hundreds of years made their way into English generally. But this is hard to demonstrate in detail. This has come to us in several different versions, Here is one: Faeder ure [thorn] u[eth]e eart on heofonum si [thorn] in nama gehalgd.
Tobecume [thorn]in rice. Gewur[eth]e [thorn]in willa on eor[eth]an swa swa on heofonum. Urne gedaeghwamlican half slye us to daeg. An forgyf us ure gyltas swa swa we forgyfa[thorn] urum glytendum.
And ne gelaed [thorn]u us on cost nunge ac alys of yfele. The th sounds of modern thin or then are represented in Old English by [thorn] or [eth]. But of course there are many differences in sounds too. Ure is the ancestor of modern our, but the first vowel was like that in too or ooze. Hlaf is modern loaf; we have dropped the h sound and changed the vowel, which in half was pronounce something like the vowel in father. O Old English had some sounds which we do not have.
The sound represented by y does not occur in Modern English. If you pronounced the vowel in bit with your lips rounded, you may approach it. That is, there were more case endings for nouns, more person and number ending for verbs, a more complicated pronoun system, various endings for D adjectives, and so on.
Old English nouns had four cases —nominative, genitive, dative, accusative. Adjectives had five-all these and an instrumental case besides. Present day English has only two cases from nouns-common case and possessive E case.
Adjectives now have no case system at all. On the other hand, we now use more rigid word order and more structure words preposition, auxiliaries, and the like EP to express relationships than Old English did. Heofonum, for instance is a dative plural; the nominative singular was heofon. Urne is an accusative singular; the nominative is ure. In urum gyltendum both words are dative plural. D Forgyfap is the third person plural form of the verb.
Word order is different. Most of the Old English words are what we may call native English; that is, words which have not been borrowed from other languages but which have been a part of English ever since English was a part of Indo-European. Old English did certainly contain borrowed words. We have seen that many borrowing were coming in from Norse. Rather large numbers had been borrowed from Latin, too.
Some of these were taken while the Anglos-Saxons were still in the continent cheese, butter, bishop, kettle, etc. But the great majority of Old English words were native English. Of the words from The American College Dictionary only about 14 percent are native. Most of these to be sure, are common, high frequency words-the, of, I, and because, man, mother, road, etc. Even so, the modern vocabulary is very much Latinized and Frenchified.
The Old English vocabulary was not. The political event which facilitated these changes was the Norman Conquest. The Normans, as the name shows, came originally from Scandinavia. In the early tenth century they established themselves in Northern France, adopted the French language, and developed a vigorous kingdom and a very passable civilization.
In the year , led by Duke William, they crossed the Channel and O made themselves master of England. For the next several hundred years, England was ruled by kings and whose first language was French.
C 26 One might wonder why, after the Norman Conquest, French did not become the national language, replacing English entirely. The reason is that the conquest was not a national migration, as the early Anglo-Saxons invasion had been.
Great numbers of Normans came to England, but they came as rulers and D landlords. French became the language of the court, the language of nobility, the language of the polite society, the language of literature. But it did not replace the English language as the language of the people. There must be hundreds of towns E and villages in which French was never heard except when visitors of high station passed through. EP 27 But English, though survived as the national language, was profoundly changed after the Norman Conquest.
Some of the changes-in sound structure and grammar-would no doubt have taken place whether there have been a conquest or not. Ever before the case system of English nouns and adjectives D was becoming simplified; people came to rely more on word order and prepositions than on inflectional endings to communicate their meanings. The process was speeded up by sound changes which caused many of the endings to sound alike.
But no doubt the conquest facilitated the changes. German, which did not experience a Norman Conquest, is today rather highly inflected compared to its cousin English. French ceased, after a hundred years or so, to be the native language of very many people in England, but it continued-and continues still- to be a zealously cultivated sound language, the mirror of elegance and civilization. When one spoke English, on introduced not only French ideas and French things but also their French names.
This was not only easy but also socially useful. The last sentence shows that the process was not yet dead. By using au courant instead of, say, abreast of things, the writer indicates that he is no dull clod who knows only English but an elegant person aware of how things are done in le haut monde. There were words to do with government; parliament, majesty, treaty, alliance, tax, government; church words; parson, sermon, baptism, incense, religion; words for foods; veal, beef, mutton, bacon, jelly, peach, lemon, cream, biscuit; colours; blue, scarlet, vermilion, household words; curtain, chair, lamp, towel, blanket, parlour; play words; dance, chess, music, leisure, conversation; literary words; story, romance, poet, literary; learned words; study, logic, grammar, noun, surgeon, anatomy, stomach; PY just ordinary words of all sorts; nice, second, very, age, bucket, gentle, final, fault, flower, cry, count, sure, move, surprise, plain.
This is not to say that English became French. English remained English in sound structure and in grammar, though these also felt the ripples of the French influence. The very heart of the C vocabulary, too, remained English. Most of the high frequency words-the pronouns, the prepositions, the conjunctions, the auxiliaries, as well as a great ordinary nouns and verbs and adjectives-were not replaced by borrowing. D 31 Middle English, then, was still Germanic language, but it differed from Old English in many ways.
The sound system and the grammar change a good deal. Speakers made less use of case systems and other influencial devices and relied E more on word order and structure words to express their meanings. Modern language is not a simple language, as any foreign speakers who try to learn it will hasten to tell you. It takes three or four months at least to learn to read Old D English prose and more than that for poetry.
But a week of good study should put one touch with the Middle English poet Chaucer. Indeed you may be able to make some sense of Chaucer straight off, though you would need instruction in pronunciation to make it sound like poetry.
That of hir smyling was ful simple and coy; Hir gretteste oot was but by Seint Loy; And she was cleped madame Eglentyne. Ful weel she soong the service dyvyne. Entuned in hir nose ful seemly, 15 All rights reserved. Incidentally, these changes contributed much to the chaos in which English spelling now finds itself.
For instance, the words name, stone, wine, dance were pronounced as two syllables by Chaucer but as just one by Shakespeare. So also the words laughed, seemed, stored would have been pronounced by Chaucer as two-syllable words. The change was an important one because it affected thousands of words and gave different aspects to the whole language. O 35 The other change is what is called the Great Vowel Shift. Thus was a systematic shifting of half a dozen vowels and diphthongs in stressed syllables.
For instance, the word nam had in Middle English a vowel something like that in the C modern word father; wine, had the vowel of modern mean; he was pronounced something like modern hey; mouse sounded like moose; moon had the vowel of moan.
Again the shift was through going and affected all the word in which these vowels sounds occurred. Since we still keep the Middle English system of spelling D these words, the differences between Modern English and Middle English are often more real than apparent. E 36 The vowel shift has meant also that we have come to use an entirely different set of symbols for representing vowel sounds that is used by the writers of EP such languages as French, Italian or Spanish, in which no such vowel occurred.
If you come across a strange word-say, bine-in an English book, you will announce it according to the English system, with the vowels of wine or dine. But if you read bine in the French, Italian, or Spanish book, you will pronounce it with the vowel of mean or seen. But there were several other developments that had an effect upon the language. One was the invention of printing, an invention introduced to England by William Caxton in the year Where before books had been rare and costly, they suddenly become cheap and common.
More and more people learn to read and write. This was the first of many advances in communication in which have worked to unify languages and to arrest the development of dialect difference, though of course the printing affects writing principally rather than speech. Among other things it hastened the standardization of spelling.
New ideas multiplied, and new ideas meant new languages. Englishmen had grown accustomed to borrowing words from French as a result of the Norman Conquest; now they borrowed from Latin and Greek.
As we have seen, English have been raiding Latin from Old English times and before. But now the floodgates really opened, and thousands of words from the classic languages poured in. Pedestrian, bonus, anatomy, contradict, climax, dictionary, benefit, multiply, exist, paragraph, initiate, scene, inspire are random examples. Probably the average educated American today has more words from French in his vocabulary than from the native English source and more from Latin than the French.
The bible if not Shakespeare has made many features of Early Modern English perfectly familiar to many people down to present time, even though O we do not use these features in the present-day speech and writing. For instance, the old pronounce thou and thee have dropped out of use now, together with their verb forms, but they are still familiar to us in prayer and in Biblical quotation.
D 40 It is not always realized, however, that considerable sound changes have taken place between Early Modern English and the English of the present day. E Shakespearean actors putting on a play speak the words, properly enough, in their modern pronunciation. But it is very doubtful that this pronunciation would be EP understood at all by Shakespeare. In these points and a great many others, the English language has moved a long way from what it was in D 41 The history of English since is filled with many movements and counter movements, of which we can notice only a couple.
One of this is the vigorous attempt made in the eighteenth century, and rather the half-hearted attempts made since, to regulate and control the English language. Many people of the eighteenth century, not understanding very well the forces which govern the language, proposed to polish and prune and restrict English, which they felt was proliferating too wildly.
There was much talk on an academy which would rule on what people could and could not say and write. The first English dictionary was published in ; it was a list of 2, words briefly defined. Many others were published with gradual improvement until Samuel Johnson published his English Dictionary in This steadily revised, dominated the field in England for nearly a hundred years. Meanwhile in America, Noah Webster published his dictionary in , and before long dictionary publishing was a big business in this country.
The last century has seen the publication of one great dictionary; the twelve volume Oxford English Dictionary, compiled in the course of seventy-five years through the labour of many scholars. We have also, of course, numerous commercial dictionaries which are good as the public wants them to be if not, indeed, rather better.
As English came to replace Latin as the language of scholarship it was felt that one should also be able to control and dissect it, parse and analyse it, as one could Latin.
What happened in practice was that the grammatical description that applied to Latin was removed and superimposed on English. This was silly, because English is an entirely different kind of language, with its own forms and O signals and ways of producing meaning. Nevertheless, grammar on the Latin model were worked out and taught in the schools. In many schools they are still being taught. This activity is not often popular with school children, but it is sometimes an C interesting and instructive exercise in logic.
The principal harm in it is that it has tended to keep people from being interested in English and has obscured the real features of English structure.
D 44 But probably the most important force in the development of English in the modern period has been the tremendous expansion of English-speaking peoples.
In English was minor language, spoken by a few people on a small E island. Now perhaps the greatest language of the world, spoken natively by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more. The American cannot go to England, or the Englishman to America confident that he will always understand and be understood. The Alabaman in Iowa or the Iowan in Alabama shows himself a foreigner every time he speaks. It is only D because the communication has become fast and easy that English in this period of its expansion has not broken into a dozen mutually unintelligible languages.
Understanding Calories 1 A calorie, also known as kilocalorie, is a unit of energy. This unit represents the energy required to heat a kilogram of water on degree Celsius. While people generally link the term calorie with food, it is a unit of measurement that can be applied to any substance possessing energy.
For instance, there are calories in a litter about one quart of gasoline. Food calories may take the form of fat, carbohydrates, or proteins. Once consumed, enzymes act on these nutrients through metabolic PY processes and break them into their perspective categories of fatty acids, glucose, and amino acids.
These molecules travel through the blood stream to specific cells where they are absorbed for immediate use or sent on to the final stage of metabolism where they release their stored energy through the process of oxidation. For example, C an individual weighing 59 kilograms pounds would expend roughly calories per hour swimming or playing basketball.
However, this same person would burn an estimated walking or playing table tennis. In order to D survive and maintain body weight, the average individual requires approximately to calories per day. Gaining or losing weight is a simple process. Add and subtract 7, calories over the course of time to E gain or lose a kilogram. Nutrition has nothing to do with it. It is all about calories.

As a teenager, William Wrigley Jr. The soap was not very popular with merchants because it was priced at 5 cents, and this selling price did not leave a good profit margin for the merchants.

The Golden Age of Comics 1 The period from the late s to the middle s is known as the golden age of comic books. The modern comic book came in the early s in the United States as a giveaway premium to promote the sale of the whole range of household products such as cereal and cleanser.
The comic books, which are printed in bright colours to attract the attentions of potential customers, proved so popular that some publishers decided to produce comic books that would come out on a monthly basis and would sell for a dime each.
Though comic strips had been reproduced in publications prior to this time, the Famous Funnies comic book, which was started in , marked the first occasion that a serialized book of comics was attempted.
PY 2 Early comic books reprinted already existing comic strips and comics based on known characters, however, publishers soon began introducing original characters developed specially for comic books. Superman was introduced in Action Comics in , and Batman was O introduced a year later. The tremendous success of these superhero comic books led to the development of numerous comic books on a variety of topics, though superhero comic book predominated.
Astonishingly, by , C approximately different comic books were being published in the United States each month, and 90 percent of US children were said to read comic books on a regular basis.
Competition and Cooperation 1 Explanations of the interrelation between competition and cooperation have evolved over the time. Early research into competition and cooperation defined each of them in terms of the distribution of rewards related to each. Competition was defined as a situation in which rewards are distributed unequally on the basis of performance, cooperation on the other hand, was defined as a situation in which rewards are distributed equally on the basis of mutual interactive behaviour among individuals.
By this definition, a competitive situation requires at least on competitor to fail for each competitor that wins, while a cooperative situation offers a reward only if all PY members of the group receive it.
In current O understanding, competition is not viewed as opposite of cooperation, instead, cooperation is viewed as integral component of competition. Cooperation is necessary among team members, perhaps in a sporting event or in a political C race, in order to win the competition, it is equally important to understand that cooperation is of great importance between teams in that same sporting event or ground rules of the game or election in order to compete.
EP D 22 All rights reserved. On Various Kinds of Thinking James Harvey Robinson 1 We do not think enough about thinking, and much of our confusion is the result of current illusions in regard to it.
Let us forget for the moment any impression we may have derived from the philosophers, and see what seems to happen in ourselves. The first thing that we notice is that our thought moves with such incredible rapidity that is almost impossible to arrest any specimen of it long enough to have a look at it. When we are offered a penny for our thoughts we also find out that we have recently had so many things in our mind that we can easily make a selection which will not PY compromise us too nakedly.
On inspection we shall find that even if we are not downright ashamed of a great part of our spontaneous thinking it is far too intimate, personal, ignoble or trivial to permit us to reveal more than small part of it. I believe this must be true to everyone. They tell us very little, and we tell them very O little. C D 2 We all appear to ourselves to be thinking all the time during our waking hours, and most of us are that we go on thinking while we all sleep, even more foolishly than when awake.
When uninterrupted by some practical E issue we are engaged in what is now known as a reverie. This is our spontaneous and favourite kind of thinking. We allow our ideas to take their own course is determined by our hopes and fears, our spontaneous desires, EP their fulfilment or frustration; by our likes and dislikes our loves and hates and resentment. There is nothing else anything like so interesting to ourselves as ourselves.
All thought that is not more or less laboriously controlled and directed will inevitably circle about the beloved Ego. It is amusing and pathetic to observe this tendency in ourselves and in others. We learn politely and D generously to overlook this truth, but if we dare to think of it, it blazes forth like the noontide sun.
While the investigators are not yet agreed on the result, or at least on the proper interpretation to be given to them, there can be no doubt that our reveries from the chief index to our fundamental character. They are reflection of our nature as modified by often hidden and forgotten experiences. We need not go into the matter further here, for it is necessary to observe that the reverie is at all times a potent and in many 23 All rights reserved.
It doubtless influences all our speculations in its persistent tendency to self —magnification and self-justification, which are its chief preoccupations, but it is the last thing to make directly or indirectly for honest increase of knowledge.
Philosophers usually talk as if such thinking did not exist or where in some way negligible. This is what makes their speculations s unreal and often worthless. We have to make practical decisions. Shall we write a letter or not? Shall we take the subway or bus?
Shall we have dinner at seven or half past? Decisions are easily distinguishable from the free flow of the reverie.
Sometimes they demand a good deal of careful pondering and the recollection of pertinent facts; often, however, they are made impulsively. Weighing a decision, it should be noted, does not necessarily add anything to our knowledge, although we may, of course seek further information before making it. C 5 A third kind of thinking is stimulated when any questions our belief and opinions.
We sometimes find ourselves changing our minds without D any resistance or heavy emotion, but if we are told that we are wrong we recent the imputation and hardened our hearts. We are incredibly heedless in E the formation of our beliefs, but find ourselves filled with an illicit passion for them when anyone proposes to rub us of their companionship.
It is obviously not the ideas themselves that are dear to us, but our self-esteem, which is EP threatened.
We are by nature stubbornly pledge to defend our own from attack, whether it be our person, our family, our property, or our opinion. A United State Senator once remarked to a friend of mine that God Almighty could not make hi change his mind on our Latin-American policy.
We may surrender, but rarely confess ourselves vanquished. In the intellectual world D at least peach is with our victory. We like to continue to believe what we have been accustomed to accept as true, and the resentment arouse when doubt is cast upon any of our assumptions lead us to seek every manner of excuse for clinging to them. The result is that most of our so-called reasoning consists in finding arguments for going on believing as we already do.
Of course the importance of this distinction if the popularly, if somewhat obscurely, recognized. The Baptist Missionary is ready enough to see that the Buddhist is not such because his doctrines would careful inspection, but because he happened to born in PY Buddhist family in Tokio. But it would be treason to his faith to acknowledge that his own partiality for certain doctrine is due to the fact that his mother was a member of the First Baptist church of Oak Ridge.
But neither of them may realize why he happens to be defending his particular opinion. As we grow up we simply adopt the ideas presented to us in regards to such matter as religion, family, relationship, property, D business, our country, and the state.
We unconsciously absorb them from our environment. They are consistently whispered in our ear by the group in E which we happen to live.
Moreover, as Mr. Trotter has pointed out, these judgements begin the product of suggestion and not of reasoning, have the quality of perfect obviousness, so that to question them. When D therefore, we find ourselves entering an opinion about the basis of which there is a quality of feeling which tell us that to inquire into it would be absurd, obviously unnecessary, unprofitable, undesirable, bad form, or wicked, we may know that that opinion is a non-rational one, and probably, therefore, founded upon inadequate evidence.
I remember when as a youth I heard a group of businessmen discussing the 25 All rights reserved. As I look back now I see that I had at the time no interest at the matter, and certainly no least argument to urge in favour of the belief in which I had been reared. But neither my personal indifference to the issue, nor the fact that I had previously given it no attention, serve to prevent an angry resentment when I heard my ideas questioned. O 11 In our reviews we are frequently engage in self-justification, for we cannot bear not to think of ourselves wrong, and yet have constant illustrations of our weaknesses and mistakes.
So we spend much time finding C fault with circumstances and the conduct of others, and shifting on to them with great ingenuity the onus of our own failures and disappointments. Rationalizing is the self-exculpation which occurs when we feel ourselves, or our group, accused of misapprehension or error. D 12 The little word my is the most important one in all human affairs, E and properly to reckon with it is the beginning of wisdom.
It has the same force whether it is my dinner, my dog, and my house, or my faith, my country, EP and my God. D 13 Philosophers, scholars, and men of science exhibit a common sensitiveness in all decisions in which their amour proper is involved. Thousands of argumentative works have been written to vent a grudge.
However stately their reasoning, it may be nothing but rationalizing, stipulated by the most common place of all motives. A history of Philosophy and theology could be written in terms of grouches, wounded pride, and aversions, and it would be far more instructive than the usual treatment of these themes. Sometimes, under Providence, the lowly impulse of resentment leads to great achievements.
