The Past, Present, And Future Of England's Language by William Marshall presents a polemical study of the English tongue, arguing that English should be restored to its native roots rather than remaining a heavily Anglicised form of Latin. Marshall contends that the Norman Conquest initiated a long decline in the language by suppressing native English word-building and by importing Anglo-Latin vocabulary, thereby corrupting spelling, pronunciation, and usage. He champions a return to the language of King Alfred, insisting that a purer English would regain vitality, copiousness, and clarity. The work lays out nine propositions on England's linguistic past and present, examining copiousness, quality, and the losses of English words in comparison with Anglo-Latin forms, and it includes extensive samples and comparisons of Old English vocabulary with modern derivatives. It proposes concrete reforms: teach Anglo-Saxon in schools, revive old English words, reform spelling and pronunciation, and establish a national academy to oversee language restoration. It also advocates translating classical works and purging the dictionary of unnecessary Latinate terms. Marshall concludes with a call to scholars and readers to join this great linguistic reform.
