Barfield discusses poetry's meaning in terms of both his personal experience and objective standards of criticism. One of the reviewers called Barfield 'a product of his time' and suggested that now he's useful only for practical use, not for contemporary scientists and theorists. I have to disagree, and that's why I'm writing this review.
ENGLISH SYNONYMS AND ANTONYMS Designed by James Champlin Fernald (1838-1918) as a Companion for the Study and as a Text-Book for the Use of Schools. A Practical and Invaluable Guide to Clear and Precise Diction for Writers, Speakers, Students, Business and Professional Men.
It is basically a vocabulary builder. Each entry gives a list of synonyms, followed by a paragraph that briefly explains or exemplifies the subtle distinctions between the listed words. The entries sometimes close with a few words on the prepositions that follow selected synonyms, but more often with a list of antonyms.
