The book is an exploration of language and its evolution, with a particular focus on the history and development of the English language. Welsford examines the relationship between language and culture, arguing that language is a reflection of the society that speaks it. He also discusses the role of language in the formation of national identity and the ways in which language can be used as a tool of power and control. The title of the book refers to Mithridates VI, a king of Pontus in ancient Anatolia who was said to have spoken 22 languages. Welsford uses Mithridates as a symbol of linguistic diversity and the importance of understanding and appreciating different languages and cultures. The book is considered a classic work on language and linguistics and is still widely read and studied today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
