Until the 17 century the term “grammar” as a gram system was used in English in relation to Latin. Latin grammar was learned in schools. As to E grammars it was only at the end of the 17th century when E grammar appeared as a system. The 15-16 centuries – changes in England and other European countries. The economic and political unification played a decisive role. Literary was becoming more common – formation of the nation, language, literary norm. That period was marked by great linguistic freedom – no unifications in forms, spelling, no dictionaries.
The first attempts to describe something in the E language were made by Alfric (955 – 1020). He wrote Colloquy which was a series of dialogues of daily speech of boys at the monastic schools. It was just designed to instruct the scholars in the daily speech of monastery. Besides he wrote a Latin Grammar. And there are some comments written in OE in this book. He translated Latin terms by means of loans. We don’t know whether there were any other important attempts; we find some commentaries, some glossaries, but we don’t find any comprehensive book, any comprehensive work which can be considered a grammar.
Grammars in the true sense of the word began to appear in the 16th c. We refer to them as prenormative grammars, because their aim was just to describe, to register the gr system of the language of that time.
William Bullocar One of the first most comprehensive grammars of that period was written by W.B. in the end of the 16th c. Before W.B. published his grammar William Lily published a Latin Grammar the first half of the 16th c – it is one of the first complete grammars of a certain language in England/in English. Lily set a certain pattern, standard of arranging the material, he was the forerunner of the many grammars that appeared later. He used the same terminology that was used in Latin but at the same time he saw something in English that wasn’t like in Latin (the use of the auxiliaries, he called them “signs”)
Bullocar’s grammar was called “Brief grammar for English” B. Used the scheme used by Lily but he didn’t imitate it; even earlier grammarians imitated previous patterns: they tried every time to throw a fresh look at the peculiarities of the E language and some of what they discovered then can be seen even now (the idea of no case). In B. Grammar we find 5 cases for the noun instead of 6 cases. He divided all the parts of the speech into declinable and indeclinable.
Other grammars which appeared after B are grammars written by Johnson, Butler and Wallis. In their grammars we find something that shows how they saw the grammatical phenomena of that time. They considered the existence of case. Johnson and Butler in their grammars discovered only two cases. Ben Johnson – 2 cases of the noun, divides words into changeable (with number) and unchangeable (without number).
In this grammar we see that he had his own look at the EL of that period. He thought that case is non-existent. Besides he studied word groups in detail: the relationship between different parts of the sentence. As to the idea of the possessive case of the Noun he considered it to be not a case but sort of a possessive adjective. W was one of the first who formulated the new rule of the formation of Future. The earlier found either 8 as in Latin or 9 parts of speech (those who considered the A to be a separate part of speech)
Brightland (beginning of the 18th century) he had only 4 parts of speech (names, qualities, affirmation (verb), particles). He was one of the first who introduced the idea of sentence. Considering the structure of the sentence he was (написал грамматику в стихах) one of the first who distinguished between a simple and a compound sentence. Didn’t find any case. The noun has no case.
The 18th century is the end of the prenormative grammar
The prenormative grammatists used the approach of Lilly’s grammar but never copied it. They described English as it was then, that was language which had already become analytic.
The number of parts of speech varied from 9 to 4. But they still divided the parts of speech into declinable and indeclinable as in Lilly’s grammar. The number of cases varied from 5 to no cases.
