(500 CE) The Latin grammarian Priscianus Caesariensis (aka Priscian) wrote Institutiones grammaticae ("Grammatical Foundations"), which became the standard textbook for studying Latin during the Middle Ages. The work is a systematic exposition of Latin grammar. It is divided into eighteen books, each dealing with a separate subject, such as word-formation, inflection, and syntax. |
