De los nombres propios, según al-Suhaylī (m. 518/1185-6)

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to show how the process of introduction in al-Andalus of the methodological theories about Linguistics, which were developed in Bagdad during the 4/10th century, took place from the 5/11th until the end of the 6/12th century. To come this conclusion, we have studied the original ideas of the Andalusian scholar al- Suhayli (dead 581/1185-6) about the classification of proper names as well as others more or less relevant aspects of his studies such as his attitude to the Oriental and Andalusians sources or his work as a lexicographer.
