In the late eleventh century grammar became an analytical rather than an exegetical discipline under the impetus of the new theology. Under the impetus of Arab learning the ancient sciences were reshaped according to the norms of Aristotle's Analytics, and developed within a structure of speculative sciences beginning with grammar and culminating in theology. Though the modistae acknowledge Aristotle, Donatus, Priscian and the Arab commentators, their roots also lie in Augustine and Boethius, and they took as much from their scholastic contemporaries as they gave them. This book traces the genesis of a grammar which communicated freely with other speculative sciences, shared their structures and methods, and affirmed its own individuality by defining its object as the causes of language. 410 0$aAmsterdam studies in the theory and history of linguistic science.$nSeries III,$pStudies in the history of the language sciences ;$vv. 101. 606 $aSpeculative grammar 615 0$aSpeculative grammar. 676 $a415 700 $aKelly$b L.
