Las fuentes del "De Institutione Grammatica" del P. de la Cardaracionalismo sanctiano y pedagogía jesuítica en el arte de Nebrija reformado

Résumé

This essay focuses on the sources for De institutione grammatica libo quinque (1601). This was a new edition of Introductiones Latinae by Nebrija, revised by Father Juan Luis de la Cerda. This latter work was subsequently enforced as the official handbook for the teaching of Latin in learning centres �including universities. The aforesaid works have been exhaustiveliy compared, with the main purpose of identifying those points where Juan Luis de la Cerda departs from Nebrija �as to both theoretical issues and the organization of the work itself. The main reason for these differences are due on the heavy influence on De institutione grammatica libri quinque of two works: Minerva by Sanctius and, aboye all, De institutione grammatica libri tres by Manuel Alvares. The Ratio Studiorum devised by the Jesuits as the norms to be followed in any teaching provided by the Company is held here as the ultímate reason for De la Cerda (a Jesuit) to alter Nebrija's work �following Alvares, fundamentally.
