Abstract
De constructione octo partium orationis published in Mexico in 1579 is one of the numerous editions of the Syntax written by the Portuguese Jesuit Manuel Álvares. This is an edition which presents interesting novelties regarding previous editions of the same work. The purpose of this article is to present and value these innovations within the context of the Jesuit Pedagogy and the doctrinal frame of the Latin grammar from the 16th century in Europe and New Spain. Therefore, it is expected to contribute to the knowledge of the teaching of Latin by Jesuits in the New World.Downloads
