This monograph offers a comprehensive reassessment of the dominant German grammarian of the 17th century J.G. Schottelius, and examines his legacy both in Germany and Europe.
- Offers comprehensive documentation of Schottelius’s numerous sources to show the range and limits of scholarly knowledge in 17th-century Germany
- Introduces new data that provides insight into whether a grammarian like Schottelius could have any impact on how people actually wrote
- Provides an accessible reading of Schottelius’s landmark study (with quotations translated into English) that does not assume prior knowledge of the seventeenth-century German context
- Traces Schottelius’s influence on Dutch, Danish, Swedish, and Russian grammar
