Clement of Alexandria in the Wake of the Greek Grammatical Tradition
Abstract
This study delves into Clement of Alexandria’s relationship with the ancient Greek grammatical tradition. By providing an overview of the occurrences of the terms γραμματικός and γραμματική in Clement’s oeuvre, it aims to offer a more precise understanding of the author’s perspective on the discipline of grammar, its main representatives, as well as its specific applications and purposes. Based on the examined passages, the research contributes to studies on early Christian hermeneutics by highlighting the relevant role of grammar in Scriptural exegesis.
