In this examination of the institutional conditions under which the Neogrammarian school of thought made its appearance in late 19th century linguistics in Germany, the emergence of the Neogrammarians is interpreted as the reaction of a well-placed, rising elite to the institutional changes transforming the study of philology at the German universities. The status of school members within the academic community and changes in the situation of the discipline within the university are seen as affecting not only the formation of the school of though as a social entity but also the specific content of its Cognitive innovations
