Larramendiren gramatika eta gramatikagintzaren historia

Laburpena

This paper deals with Larramendi's Basque Grammar (1729) and tries to place it in the 18th century Grammatical Tradition. In section 1, some trends of Western Grammar and Larramendi's knowledge of them are shown. In 2, the framework of Greek and Latin grammars is briefly explained. In 3, I relate some characteristics of Larramendi's grammar with the classical pattern above mentioned. In 4, I gather some examples of the influence of the classical tradition and consider their suitability for the description of Basque language. Finally, in section 5, general conclusions and other considerations are explained.
