From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Binding rubbed, cover stained, otherwise clean. - From the text: In the arts faculty of the medieval university, grammar was taught as a theoretical science. The grammarians did not teach the students how to express themselves correctly in Latin, but how to establish the universal features of language. Only by leaving aside the practical use of a language and investigating its universal and unchangeable causes could grammar live up to the Aristotelian definition of a speculative science. This theoretical bent is apparent in medieval commentaries on Pris-cians Institution® grammatuae, the grammatical textbook that followed the study of the more elementary Donatus in the arts curriculum. Robert Kilwardby, for example, who wrote his commentary around 1270, ignores most of Priscians examples and concentrates instead on his general rules and definitions. Kilwardbys contemporary, Boethius of Dacia, complains in the introduction to his Priscian commentary that the value of the Institution® is limited, since Priscian does not explain the causes of grammatical constructions but just corroborates them with authoritative statements of grammarians of Antiquity.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - To what extent can one speak of 'the Renaissance' in terms of grammar: did the medieval curricular subject grammatica survive into the Renaissance unchanged or was it transformed by the pedagogical programme of the humanists The studies collected here focus on this question and trace the development of humanistic approaches to grammar. The first section consists of essays on the general characteristics of grammar in the period and on its connections with rhetoric. The following parts are devoted to three major grammatical writers: Guarino Veronese (1374-1460), Niccolà Perotti (1419/1420-1480), and Antonio de Nebrija (1441/1444 -1522). There is finally a section dealing with other figures, such as the famous Lorenzo Valla (1407-1457). Professor Percival focuses throughout on widely disseminated textbooks, beginning with the earliest attempt at a humanistic rejuvenation of grammar, the brief 'Regulae grammaticales' of Guarino Veronese (c. 1418), followed by Perotti's comprehensive 'Rudimenta grammatices', published in 1473 by Rome's first printers, and finally Nebrija's commercially successful 'Introductiones Latinae' (Salamanca, 1481). Nebrija's textbook proved the longest-lived, but Perotti's was also an international best-seller, going through many editions in several countries.
