Summary "Ælfrics Grammatik und Glossar" by Abbot of Eynsham Aelfric is a linguistic text written in the late 10th century. This scholarly work is aimed at providing grammatical instruction and vocabulary for learning Old English, drawing from Latin sources. The text appears to compound Aelfric's efforts to make language learning accessible, particularly for children and novice scholars. The opening of the text serves as a preface where Aelfric expresses his intent to translate and simplify the teachings of Latin grammar for the Anglo-Saxon audience. He acknowledges that the study of grammar might seem trivial to some, yet he believes it to be a necessity for young learners. Aelfric emphasizes the importance of understanding language both for academic purposes and for more profound reasons connected to faith and morality, suggesting that learning such skills will aid individuals in guiding the youth and maintaining the teachings of Christianity within the community.
