Grammatica. Con inizio dalla morfologia

L'Accedence Commenc't Grammar (Grammatica con inizio dalla morfologia) è un piccolo, raffinato manuale di latino pubblicato nel 1669. Viene qui presentato il testo, per la prima volta tradotto in italiano, corredato di un commento che identifica le fonti grammaticali e le innumerevoli citazioni di autori classici, spesso dense di spunti poetici. Attraverso l'apparente aridità della descrizione grammaticale, traspare così la personalità di Milton poeta, il suo stile, la sua fiducia nel valore letterario e civile della cultura classica. Una grammatica tra le più sintetiche di tutti i tempi permette di esplorare il rapporto dell'autore con i modelli letterari dell'antichità. Das Urheberrecht an bibliographischen und produktbeschreibenden Daten und an den bereitgestellten Bildern liegt bei Informazioni Editoriali, I.E.
