Sir William Jones
Sir William Jones (1746 –1794) was an Anglo-Welsh philologist and scholar of ancient India, particularly known for his proposition of the existence of a relationship among Indo-European languages. His third annual discourse before the Asiatic Society on the history and culture of the Hindus (1786) is often cited as the beginning of comparative linguistics and Indo-European studies. Jones’ interdisciplinary scholarship innovatively combined language and linguistic study with the traditional subjects of research to throw light on transcending questions like the origins of man and culture. This bibliography aims to provide an overview of the full width of his writings and secondary scholarship.

Recollections
RECOLLECTIONS is the memoir of William S. Jones, who has lived a quintessentially 20th Century life. He grew up on a farm in Ohio, got drafted into the army and fought in the Battle of the Bulge. After the war, he went back to college and later became a Fulbright Scholar and studied in Manchester, England. He then proceeded to work for a diverse number of organizations, including his own. Written in a down to earth style, this work will inform (and possibly surprise) Bill¿s family and friends, and may also appeal to anyone interested in one individual¿s journey through recent history.
