The paper focus on two grammar exercise books, that by Mottura and Parato (1871) and that by Malagoli (1922), and explores some of the most important school grammars that appeared between 1870 and 1920 to show that between the two centuries the vocabulary was included in schoolbooks only insofar as it intersected with morphology. Malagoli was the first author to dedicate a large part of the exercises to the vocabulary and semantics, drawing on the recent "Traité de stylistique française" by Charles Bally (1909), although without grasping its theoretical depth: his work, however, remained isolated until the more systematic and conscious resumption of the same "Traité" by Bruno Migliorini in 1941.
Il saggio analizza due eserciziari grammaticali, quello di Mottura e Parato (1871) e quello di Malagoli (1922), e sonda alcune delle più importanti grammatiche scolastiche apparse tra il 1870 e il 1920 per mostrare che tra i due secoli il lessico era incluso nei manuali scolastici solo per quanto interseca la morfologia. Per primo, Malagoli dedicò un’ampia parte di esercizi al lessico e alla semantica attingendo al recente "Traité de stylistique française" di Charles Bally (1909), pur senza coglierne lo spessore teorico: la novità restò tuttavia isolata fino alla più sistematica e consapevole ripresa che del medesimo "Traité" fece Bruno Migliorini (1941).

Abstract
"The vocabulary in Mottura, Parato’s and Malagoli’s exercise books (1871 and 1922)". The paper focus on two grammar exercise books, that by Mottura and Parato (1871) and that by Malagoli (1922), and explores some of the most important school grammars that appeared between 1870 and 1920 to show that between the two centuries the vocabulary was included in schoolbooks only insofar as it intersected with morphology. Malagoli was the first author to dedicate a large part of the exercises to the vocabulary and semantics, drawing on the recent "Traité de stylistique française" by Charles Bally (1909), although without grasping its theoretical depth: his work, however, remained isolated until the more systematic and conscious resumption of the same "Traité" by Bruno Migliorini in 1941.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
