These Lectures were written for students of the University of Cambridge towards the end of the nineteenth century by the eminent Semitist William Wright. The Lectures are full of valuable and accurate data drawn from a variety of Semitic languages. While more recent studies on the comparative linguistics of Semitic have appeared, Wright's Lectures remain a classic in the field.
