Reviews

"Dons's book is an important contribution to early grammatical descriptions of English and provides a wealth of information about Early Modern English grammar. It deserves praise for presenting an analysis, based on the original texts, of the early grammarians' definitions and classification systems of the world classes, the inventory of morphological catgories and distribution patterns and also early syntactical rules of English. In addition, her tables, which give overviews of the grammarians' statement on particular rules, prove very helpful."In: Anglia 3/2007 "Dons' work contains an impressive amount of detail that has been systematized, analysed and presented in sensible categories and in a very readable format."Kari E.
