| description | Common knowledge usually thinks that grammars are aseptic texts which simply describe the grammatical rules of a given language. Nevertheless, this is far from the truth: grammatical discourse has been filled over the time with outnumbered, traditional and even century or millenium long controversies around sheer linguistic points (petty for the rest of mortals). This did not remain unobserved by the best satyrians in the Renaissance and the Baroque times, such as Desiderius Erasmus from Rotterdam and Diego Saavedra Fajardo. One of those controversies, and a very loud one, took place in the area of French Hispanic studies in France in the verge of the 17th century, between César Oudin, the secretary-interpreter of the king, and the Spanish adventurer Ambrosio de Salazar, both of them rival grammarians of the Spanish language back then. It is less known the confrontation aroused among other grammarians in the 1650-1660 decade in France. We will focus on one of such disputes among grammarians in the midst of the 17th century, the one that took place among some French grammarians such as the also secretary-interpreter of the king, Claude Dupuis, and some Spanish grammarians such as Simón Deça de Sottomayor. This grammatical controversy and verbal fight adopted the qualities and dimensions of court polemics. |
