Fourteenth-Century Developments in Armenian Grammatical Theory through Borrowing and Translation: Contexts and Models of Yovhannes K‘r.nets‘i’s1 Grammar Book

Gohar Muradyan · 2025

Catalogue summary

Yovhannēs K‘r.nets‘i’s 1340s grammar combines Dionysian categories with Latin syntax and definitions, producing new Armenian terms for sentence kinds, agreement, case government, and verbal structure.

Why this matters

The surviving 1350 manuscript reveals a medieval Armenian scholar adapting Greek and Latin models rather than passively repeating inherited grammatical doctrine.
