Descrizione

The work aims to restore the author Alessandro Manzoni to the history of linguistic thought, presenting for the first time both the Italian translation of Manzoni’s French footnotes in the Port-Royal Grammar, and the proximity of the footnotes to the excerpts from Della lingua italiana, where the new version may be understood from a broader theoretical discourse. Manzoni’s criticisms of the Port-Royalists’ inflexible norms are not only restricted to the area of abstractions, but they also make themselves explicit in very detailed linguistic examples. These include the semantic value of the verb, the use of de/des particles and the underlying ellipses, from the discovery of an error made by the compilers of the Grammar, to the refutation of analogical reasoning as an exclusive effective cause of language in favour of linguistic use. The research does not aim to propose an ingenuous and unhistorical interpretation of the theoretical reflections of Manzoni, but demonstrate the long and authoritative diachronic processing of some of the linguistico-theoretical issues that have become crucial in the current context.
