This book explains how the grammarians of the Graeco-Romance world perceived the nature and structure of the languages they taught. It discusses aspects that have persisted to this day and seem reassuringly familiar, such as 'parts of speech', and aspects that are wholly dissimilar to our present understanding of grammar and language.
