Abstract

This article tries to describe the achievements of general linguistics within Catalan culture from the mid-19th to the middle of the 20th century. The main linguistic directions that manifested themselves in the Catalan countries during this period and their main authors are the following: comparative linguistics with Lluís Nicolau d'Olwer, idealism with Manuel de Montoliu and structuralism with Ricard Aragó. The German influence is particularly present in the first two directions mentioned. During this time, the work of Pere Barnils on experimental phonetics as well as that of Antoni M. Alcover on dialectology and Alexandre Galí on didactics of syntax emerged.
