The paper analyses the grammars and literary historic works of Slovene intellectuals in the 19th century, which include the name of first Slovene grammarian Adam Bohorič. In the early 19th century Slovene revivers of the Zois circle (Kopitar, Vodnik, Primic) revived the memory of the first Slovene grammarian. The Catholic priests who wrote the first Slovene grammars in the 19th century (1824-1858) - Dajnko (1824), Murko (1832), Muršec (1847), Potočnik (1849), Majar (1850) and Potočnik (1858) - ignored the Protestant tradition and Bohorič's merit. However, from the summer of 1854 onwards, the first Slovene literary historians, who studied Slavic Studies under Miklošič at Vienna University, valued the Protestant tradition and mentioned Bohorič as the author of the first Slovene grammar: Janežič (1854), Marn (1861), Macun (1863), Levec (1871/1872), Kleinmayr (1881), Marn (1883), Glaser (1894) and Štrekelj (1899).
