Руска Станчева. Кодификаторската практика на първите български научни граматики (Върху материал от описанието на имената)
The monograph traces the history of the codification of the grammatical rules and norms in six Bulgarian grammars published between 1936 (1938) and 1944. The author provides a consistent analysis of the codification practice with respect to the nominal system: nouns, adjectives, numerals, pronouns. She discusses the literary formation established in the 1930s and 1940s and studies its status as an autonomous, supra-dialectal system with its own development trends and functional superiority over the dialects. This question has a powerful theoretical charge and may give impetus to further opinions and research. With its innovativeness, the work opens a new page in Bulgarian linguistic historiography.
