10:00AM - Great Courses
Platform: Zoom
This week we continue to look at the development of specific letters.
Lecture 7, Lost at C: Why does a letter like “C” operate the way it does? Go back to the ancient world of the Etruscans to trace its earliest origins. Get a clearer picture of the ways that the sounds of letters transform over time. Also, consider the nature of spelling systems and how they often stay the same while other elements of the language change over time.
Lecture 8, The History of H: The letter “H” is a unique letter of the alphabet in how often we treat it as if it doesn’t exist. Examine the ways we use the letter “H,” why the French influence on English affects “H” so much, and why many European languages drop it as a sound altogether while still preserving the letter in the alphabet.
We will devote time to discussion following each lecture.
Questions about the lectures can be directed to Saul Rapkin .
