The prize essay was published in Danish in 1818. In contrast to other works by Rask, notably his introduction to the study of Icelandic, it was never reissued until Louis Hjelmslev published a corrected version in Danish as part of his edition of Rask's selected works. While Rask lived, a substantial part of the book was translated into German. 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries I,$pAmsterdam classics in linguistics, 1800-1925 ;$v18. 606 $aGothic language$xHistory 606 $aOld Norse language$xHistory 615 0$aGothic language$xHistory. 615 0$aOld Norse language$xHistory. 676 $a439/.609 700 $aRask$b Rasmus$f1787-1832.$0172572 701 $aEge$b Niels$01600982 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818183703321 996 $aInvestigation of the origin of the Old Norse or Icelandic language$93924369 997 $aUNINA
