Inhaltsangabe

Here is a manual for scholars of Old Spanish that departs from tradition in that it guides the reader through a minimal (and painless) course in the fundamentals of linguistics and Latin before discussing the evolution of Latin to Spanish. It also includes an excellent selection of early and medieval texts that clearly demonstrate the process of change that took place as the language of Caesar became Spanish.
