Metalanguage, glossing, and conceptualization in the grammars of the Middle Ages

This volume contains the papers presented at the workshop with the title “Grammars, Metalanguage, and Glossing on the model language as reflection on the target language in the Middle Ages” held during the ICHoLS XV congress 2021.1 Aiming at filling the gaps in the history of linguistics and reviewing some positions that no longer correspond with the state of the art, the workshop intended at as10 sessing the analysis of the field of syntax, which, contrary to what one may find in literature, belonged to the speculation on language and to the field of interplay of grammar, rhetoric, logic even in the earliest phases of the modern age. The research carried out on the glosses, seen here as a cognitive reflection, as well as on the work of the Modistae and of the scholastic philosophers and grammarians, demonstrate a spe15 cial interest in the interclausal roles of the partes orationis.
