| Abstract: | The earliest literary records of the Maltese 'Language do not go further back than the beginning of the sixteenth century. The first attempt to write Maltese was made in the drafting of Maltese sermons of which some handwritten specimens exist: in the Royal Malta Library. The first Maltese Grammar was written and published at Rome in 1750 by Canon G. Fco. Agius Sultana (better known by his latinized surname DeSoldanis), who was the first Librarian of the Malta Library. His works compose another grammar, a dictionary which is still in script, and a collection of proverbs which have been published.in the Malta vol.III, 1928, by Dr G. Curmi. |
