Chapter XX: Appendix: Comparative View of Sanskrit and Other Languages, (5)

Professor Whitney might still, I feel convinced, do some very useful work, as the apostle of the Science of Language in America, if only, instead of dealing in general theories, he would apply himself to a critical study of scientific facts, and if he would not consider it his peculiar calling to attack the personal character of other scholars. If he must needs criticise, would it be quite impossible for him, even in his character of Censor, to believe that other scholars are as honest as himself, as independent, as outspoken, as devoted at all hazards to the cause of truth? Does he really believe in his haste that all men who differ from him, or who tell him that he has misapprehended their teaching, are humbugs, pharisees, or liars? Professor Steinthal was a great friend of his, does he imagine that his violent resentment was entirely unprovoked? I have had hundreds of reviews of my books, some written by men who knew more, some by men who knew less than myself. Both classes of reviews proved very useful, but, beyond correcting matters of fact, I never felt called upon to answer, or to enter into personal recriminations with any one of my reviewers. We should not forget that, after all, reviews are written by men, and that there are often very tangible reasons why the same book is fiercely praised and fiercely abused. No doubt, every writer who believes in the truth of his opinions, wishes to see them accepted as widely as possible; but reviews have never been the most powerful engines for the propaganda of truth, and no one who has once known what it is to feel one’s self face to face with Truth, would for one moment compare the applause of the many with the silent approval of the still small voice of conscience within. Why do we write? Chiefly, I believe, because we think we have discovered facts unknown to others, or arrived at opinions opposed to those hitherto held. Knowing the effort one has made one’s self in shaking off old opinions or accepting new facts, no student would expect that everybody else would at once follow his lead. Indeed, we wish to differ from certain authorities, we wish to be criticised by them; their opposition is far more important, far more useful, far more welcome to us, than their approval could ever be. It would be an impossible task were we to attempt to convert personally every writer who still differs from us. Besides, there is no wheat without bran, and nothing is more instructive than to watch how the millstones of public opinion slowly and noiselessly separate the one from the other. I have brought my harvest, such as it was, to the mill: I do not cry out when I see it ground. From my peers I have received the highest rewards which a scholar can receive, rewards far, far above my deserts; the public at large has treated me no worse than others; and, if I have made some enemies, all I can say is, I do not envy the man who in his passage through life has made none.

Even now, though I am sorry for what Professor Whitney has done, I am not angry with him. He has great opportunities in America, but also great temptations. There is no part of the civilized world where a scholar might do more useful work than in America, by the bold and patient exploration of languages but little known, and rapidly disappearing. Professor Whitney may still do for the philology of his country what Dr. Bleek has done for the languages of Africa at the sacrifice of a lifelong expatriation, alas! I have just time to add, at the sacrifice of his life.

But I admit that America has also its temptations. There are but few scholars there who could or would check Professor Whitney, even in his wildest moods of asseveration, and by his command of a number of American papers, he can easily secure to himself a temporary triumph. Yet, I believe, he would find a work, such as Bancroft’s “On the Native Races of the Pacific States of North America,” a far more useful contribution to our science, and a far more permanent monument of his life, than reviews and criticisms, however brilliant and popular.

It was because I thought Professor Whitney capable of rendering useful service to the Science of Language in America that I forbore so long, that I never for years noticed his intentional rudeness and arrogance, that I received him, when he called on me at Oxford, with perfect civility, that I assisted him when he wanted my help in procuring copies of MSS. at Oxford. I could well afford to forget what had happened, and I tried for many years to give him credit for honorable, though mistaken, motives in making himself the mouthpiece of what he calls the company of collaborators.

In fact, if he had arraigned me again and again before a tribunal of competent judges, I should gladly have left my peers to decide between me and my American traducer. But when he cleverly changed the venue and brought his case before a tribunal where forensic skill was far more likely to carry the day than complicated evidence that could be appreciated by a special jury only, then, at last, I had to break through my reserve. It was not exactly cowardice that had kept me so long from encountering the most skillful of American swordsmen, but when the duel was forced upon me, I determined it should be fought out once for all.

I might have said much more; in fact, I had written much more than what I here publish in self-defense, but I wished to confine my reply as much as possible to bare facts. Professor Whitney has still to learn, it seems, that in a duel, whether military or literary, it is the bullets which hit, not the smoke, or the report, however loud. I do not flatter myself that with regard to theories on the nature of language or the relation between language and thought there ever will be perfect unanimity among scholars, but as to my bullets or my facts, I believe the case is different. I claim no infallibility, however, and would not accept the papal tiara among comparative philologists, even though it was offered me in such tempting terms by the hands of Professor Whitney. In order, therefore, to satisfy Mr. Darwin, Professor Haeckel, and others whose good opinion I highly value, because I know that they care for truth far more than for victory, I now appeal to Professor Whitney to choose from among his best friends three who are _Professores ordinarii_ in any university of England, France, Germany, or Italy, and by their verdict I promise to abide. Let them decide the following points as to simple matters of fact, the principal bones of contention between Professor Whitney and myself:--

1. Whether the Latin of the inscription on the Duilian Column
represents the Latin as spoken in 263 B.C. (p. 430);

2. Whether Ahura-Mazda can be rendered by “the mighty spirit”
(p. 430);

3. Whether +sarvanâman+ in Sanskrit means “name for everything”
(p. 430);

4. Whether Professor Whitney knew that the Phenician alphabet had by
Rougé and others been traced back to an Egyptian source (pp. 430,
450, 468);

5. Whether Professor Whitney thought that the words _light_,
_alight_, and _delight_ could be traced to the same source (p. 467);

6. Whether in the passages pointed out on p. 434, Professor Whitney
contradicts himself or not;

7. Whether he has been able to produce any passage from my writings
to substantiate the charge that in my Lectures I was impelled by an
overmastering fear lest man should lose his proud position in the
creation (p. 435);

8. Whether there are _verbatim_ coincidences between my Lectures and
those of Professor Whitney (pp. 425, 470-474);

9. Whether I ever denied that language was made through the
instrumentality of man (p. 470);

10. Whether I had or had not fully explained under what restrictions
the Science of Language might be treated as one of the physical
sciences, and whether Professor Whitney has added any new
restrictions (pp. 422 seq., 475 seq.);

11. Whether Professor Whitney apprehended in what sense some of the
greatest philosophers declared conceptual thought impossible without
language (p. 484);

12. Whether the grammatical blunder, with regard to the Sanskrit
+pari tasthushas+ as a nominative plur., was mine or his (p. 490);

13. Whether I had not clearly defined the difference between hard
and soft consonants long before Professor Whitney, and whether he
has not misrepresented what I had written on the subject (p. 490);

14. Whether in saying that the soft consonants can be intonated,
I could have meant that they may or may not be intonated (p. 497);

15. Whether I invented the terms +vivârasvâśâghoshâḥ+ and
+saṃvâranâdaghoshâḥ+, and whether they are to be found in no
Sanskrit grammarian (p. 498);

16. Whether I was right in saying that Professor Whitney had
complained about myself and others not noticing his attacks, and
whether his remarks on my chapter on Fir, Oak, and Beech required
being noticed (p. 500);

17. Whether I had invented the _Epitheta ornantia_ applied by
Professor Whitney to myself and other scholars, or whether they
occur in his own writings (p. 504);

18. Whether E. Burnouf has written two or three bulky volumes on the
Avesta, or only one (p. 515);

19. Whether Professor Whitney made a grammatical blunder in
translating a passage of the Atharva-Veda Prâtiśâkhya, and on the
strength of it charged the Hindu grammarian with holding opinions
“obviously and grossly incorrect, and hardly worth quoting”
(p. 519);

20. Whether Professor Whitney has occasionally been forgetful
(p. 523).

Surely there are among Professor Whitney’s personal friends scholars who could say Yes or No to any of these twenty questions, and whose verdict would be accepted, and not by scholars only, as beyond suspicion. Anyhow, I can do no more for the sake of peace, and to put an end to the supposed state of chaos in the Science of Language, and I am willing to appear in person or by deputy before any such tribunal of competent judges.

I hope I have thus at last given Professor Whitney that satisfaction which he has claimed from me for so many years; and let me assure him that I part with him without any personal feeling of bitterness or hostility. I have grudged him no praise in former days, and whatever useful work we may receive from him in future, whether on the languages of India or of America, his books shall always receive at my hands the same justice as if they had been written by my best friend. I have never belonged to any company of collaborators, and never shall; but whosoever serves in the noble army for the conquest of truth, be he private or general, will always find in me a faithful friend, and, if need be, a fearless defender. I gladly conclude with the words of old Fairfax (Bulk and Selvedge, 1674): “I believe no man wishes with more earnestness than I do, that all men of learning and knowledge were men of kindness and sweetness, and that such as can outdo others would outlove them too; especially while self bewhispers us, that it stands us all in need to be forgiven as well as to forgive.”

THE MUMBLES, NEAR SWANSEA, WALES,

_September, 1875._

[Footnote 1: See a very remarkable article by Von Hartmann on
Haeckel, in the _Deutsche Rundschau_. July, 1875.]

[Footnote 2: _Etymologische Forschungen_, 1871, p. 78, tönende,
_d.h._ weiche.]

[Footnote 3: See p. 348.]

[Footnote 4: _Lectures_, vol. ii. p. 157.]

[Footnote 5: Having still that kind of faith left, that a man
could not willfully say a thing which he knows to be untrue,
I looked again at every passage where I have dwelt on the
difference between soft and hard consonants, and I think I may
have found the passage which Professor Whitney grasped at, when he
thought that I knew nothing of the difference between voiced and
voiceless letters, until he had enlightened me on the subject.
Speaking of letters, not as things by themselves, but as acts,
I sometimes speak of the process that produces the hard consonant
first, and then go on to say that it can be voiced, and be made
soft. Thus when speaking of s and z, I say, the former is
completely surd, the latter capable of intonation, and the same
expression occurs again. Could Professor Whitney have thought that
I meant to say that z was only capable of intonation, but was not
necessarily intonated? I believe he did, for it is with regard to
s and z that, as I see, he says, “it is a marvel to find men like
Max Müller, in his last lectures about language, who still cling
to the old view that a z, for instance, differs from s primarily
by inferior force of utterance.” Now, I admit that my expression,
“capable of intonation” might be misunderstood, and might have
misled a mere tiro in these matters, who alighted on this passage,
without reading anything before or after. But that a professor in
an American university could have taken my words in that sense is
to me, I confess, a puzzle, call it intellectual or moral, as you
like.]

[Footnote 6: _Indische Studien_, x. 459.]

[Footnote 7: When I saw how M. Biot, the great astronomer, treated
Professor Weber _du haut en bas_, because, in criticising Biot’s
opinion he had shown some ignorance of astronomy, I said, from a
kind of fellow-feeling: “Weber’s Essays are very creditable to the
author, and hardly deserved the withering contempt with which they
were treated by Biot. I differ from nearly all the conclusions at
which Professor Weber arrives, but I admire his great diligence in
collecting the necessary evidence.” Upon this the American
gentleman reads me the following lesson: First of all, I am told
that my statement involves a gross error of fact; I ought to have
said, Weber’s Essay, not Essays, because one of them, and the most
important, was not published till after Biot’s death. I accept the
reproof, but I believe all whom it concerned knew what Essay I
meant. But secondly, I am told that the epithet _withering_ is
only used by Americans when they intend to imply that, in their
opinion, the subject of the contempt is withered, or ought to be
withered by it. This may be so in American, but I totally deny
that it is so in English. “Withering contempt,” in English, means,
as far as I know, a kind of silly and arrogant contempt, such, for
instance, as Professor Whitney displays towards me and others,
intended to annihilate us in the eyes of the public, but utterly
harmless in its consequences. But let me ask the American critic
what he meant when, speaking of Biot’s treatment of Weber, he
said, “Biot thought that Weber’s opinions had been _whiffed_ away
by him as if unworthy of serious consideration.” Does _whiff away_
in America mean more or less than _withering_? What Professor
Whitney should have objected to was the adverb _hardly_. I wish I
had said _vix, et ne vix quidem_.]
