Medieval donatus commentaries

View through CrossRef
Summary The rich treasure-house of unedited grammatical material, some of which has already been reported, held in various manuscript collections dating from the Middle Ages contains a number of versions of the grammatical works of Donatus and more than 200 commentaries, most of them anonymous, on various aspects of the Donatus corpus. The purpose of these notes is to draw attention to these commentaries dating from the period 11th – 15th centuries and to suggest that a reappraisal of Donatus’s status in medieval grammatical study is needed.
