Abstract

Western contrastivists usually regard 1957 as the starting year of the new discipline"Contrastive Linguistics".It is argued here that the date can be traced back much farther.Among the scholars who have contributed a lot to the founding of the new discipline, the German philosopher Wilhelm von Humboldt, the Danish linguist Otto Jespersen and the American anthropologist Benjamin Lee Whorf play an important role.
