Studying Ibero-Romance before 1200

| University of Liverpool

Those who wish to study the semantic, morphological or syntactic development of some aspect of Old Spanish need to include in their investigations data from before 1200. The history of Latin in the Iberian Peninsula, before the so-called “Twelfth-century Renaissance”, was similar to that of any other literate living language; most texts (including legal texts) were in the written mode of the native language, despite aiming for traditional orthography, and thus they can be used, with care, as material for the study of the spoken language of their time.
