August Schleicher (1821-68) paved the way for modern historical linguistics with his 'family tree' model of language relationships and his early reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European. This abridged English translation of the third edition of Schleicher's 1861-2 Compendium appeared in 1874-7, and focuses on Indo-European and the classical languages.
