The sentential subordination in the Spanish grammar of the 20th century built on the model of the Latin and Greek

In this article the author studies the treatment of the sentential subordination in the Grammar of the Spanish Language (1961) of Luis Penagos, that is one of last representative texts of the traditional grammar in our country. Luis Alberto Hernando Cuadrado firstly analyzes the material of the teacher of the Pontifical Minor Seminary of Comillas, who, respecting the socio-cultural context of the epoch, continues the pattern of two grammars that he had written before, a Latin one and a Greek one, in order to facilitate their learning, and afterwards he reformulates the examined doctrine according the suppositions of the current syntactic theory.
