century with the Pamphlet for Grammar by William Bullokar.

nineteenth century.
6. BRIEF HISTORY ON EVOLUTION OF ENGLISH GRAMMAR
The Dutch tradition of writing English grammars, which began with Thomas
Basson's The Conjugations in Englische and Netherdutche in the same year—
1586—as William Bullokar's first English grammar (written in
English), gained renewed strength in the early 20th century in the work of
three grammarians: Hendrik Poutsma, Etsko Kruisinga, and Reinard
Zandvoort. Poutsma's Grammar of late modern English, published between
1904 and 1929 and written for "continental, especially Dutch students,"
selected all its examples from English literature
