 Comprehensive information and links about Jacob Grimm
In this work, Grimm showed the importance of linguistic analysis of old laws, and the light that can be thrown on many of their more confusing passages through a comparison of the corresponding words and expressions in other old cognate dialects.
The labors of past generations from the humanists onwards resulted in an enormous collection of materials in the shape of text-editions, dictionaries, and grammars, although most of it was uncritical and untrustworthy.
Grimm was not made to be a politician and also soon realized that the National Assembly was not getting anywhere it was eventually dissolved without establishing a constitution and so asked to be released from his duties and returned with relief to his former studies.

This quickwitted, restless and malignant politician, though himself occupying a lucrative place in the royal household, declaimed, day after day, against the manner in which the great offices of state were filled; and his declamations were echoed, in tones somewhat less sharp and vehement, by other orators.
Moderate politicians of both parties were unwilling to put a stigma on a man, not indeed faultless, but distinguished both by his abilities and by his amiable qualities.
The politicians, who delivered their oracles from the thickest cloud of tobacco smoke at Garroway's, confidently asked, without knowing any thing, either of war in general, or of Irish war in particular, why Schomberg did not fight.

He was not a Churchman because he was a politician, but a politician because he was a Churchman.
To the former he urged that the Church of England was wide enough for the highest principles of civil liberty; to the latter he tried to show that to be a religious and God-fearing man it was not absolutely necessary to be a Tory in politics.
To Swift it was easy enough to be a staunch Churchman and at the same time expose the fallacies underlying the faith in the sovereign power; but then Swift was here no party fanatic who would use the "Church in danger" cry for party purposes.
