Medieval Grammar and Rhetoric

Language Arts and Literary Theory, AD 300-1475. Edited by Rita Copeland and Ineke Sluiter.

The book brings together more than fifty primary texts from the medieval history of grammar and rhetoric, well over half of them never translated into English before. Including an interpretive general introduction, local historical introductions, essays, and headnotes. The volume establishes the ancient traditions on which the medieval arts are based, and gives substantial selections from the late antique source texts. All texts are presented in their historical and theoretical contexts, and carefully annotated in order to make them useful to readers.
