A. _POETICA_ INCLUDED IN _GRAMMATICA_ The _grammatica_ of this period continued the traditional inclusion of metric and of certain figures of speech; and the master’s _prælectio_ on the Latin poets involved at Chartres, as two centuries before at Speier,[1] imitative writing of Latin verse. About 1200 appeared two hexameter summaries: the _Doctrinale_[2] of the Norman Alexandre de Villedieu, and the _Græcismus_[3] of the Flemish Évrard de Béthune. The former had so long and wide a vogue that it may be called the standard medieval mnemonic of _grammatica_. Reviewing successively inflections, syntax, metric,[4] accents, figures, it includes under the last the lists of Greek terms that show at once a preoccupation of the time and the shifting boundary between _grammatica_ and _rhetorica_.[5] B. _POETRIA_ Distinctive of this period is the separate _ars poetica_, or _poetria_. Often itself in verse, this sort of manual differed from Bede’s, first in being less a reference book for the study of meters than an exercise book for the actual writing of Latin verse, and secondly in giving less space to prosody than to poetic diction. The four most conspicuous[6] may be assigned approximately to the half-century divided by 1200 (c. 1175-1225). 1. Matthieu de Vendôme, _Ars Versificatoria_ (before 1175)
