Description
Summary:Grammar in Dante occupies one of the two poles of the diglossic paradigm characteristic of the linguistic culture of the Middle Ages. Reflection on grammar is developed creatively from the <em>Vita Nuova</em> to the <em>Commedia</em>, starting from Aristotelian-Thomist concepts and leading to the definitive neutralisation of the diglossia demonstrated especially in the <em>Convivio</em> and the <em>De vulgari.</em> This neutralisation will be theorised in Canto XXVI of the <em>Paradiso</em>.
