L'adjectif dans la tradition grammaticale russe

Russian grammars have traditionally been reluctant to grant proper autonomy to adjectives. They have remained locked in the framework of the adjective/substantive relationship. This is essentially due to respect for classical grammatical tradition and, to a lesser degree, to the form and status of the adjective in the language. In fact, the presence of an autonomous flexion of the long adjective might have promoted its autonomy, while the existence in Russian of a predicative adjective justified attempts to establish links with the verbal category. Finally, it appears that up until Lomonosov's Grammar (1755), grammatical treatises offered only morphological and syntactical definitions of adjectives, any form of semantic definition being restricted to dictionaries
