Today on Linguist list there appeared an ad about a new book which may be of<br>interests to lexicographers.<br><br>I repost it here.<br><br>Hayim Y. Sheynin<br><br><pre><tt><tt>Title: Practical Lexicography <br>Subtitle: A Reader <br>Publication Year: 2008 <br>Publisher: Oxford University Press<br> <a target="_blank" href="http://www.oup.com/us"><span class="yshortcuts" id="lw_1201658258_11">http://www.oup.com/us</span></a><br> <br>Editor: Thierry Fontenelle<br><br>Hardback: ISBN: 9780199292332 Pages: 416 Price: U.S. $ 140.00<br>Paperback: ISBN: 9780199292349 Pages: 416 Price: U.S. $ 55.00<br><br><br>Abstract:<br><br>This book collects and introduces some of the best and most useful work<br> in<br>practical lexicography. It has been designed as a resource for students<br> and<br>scholars of lexicography and lexicology and to be an essential<br> reference<br>for professional lexicographers. It focuses on central issues in the<br> field<br>and covers topics hotly
debated in lexicography circles. After a full<br>contextual introduction Thierry Fontenelle, divides the book into<br> twelve<br>parts - theoretical perspectives, corpus design, lexicographical<br> evidence,<br>word senses and polysemy, collocations and idioms, definitions,<br> examples,<br>grammar and usage, bilingual lexicography, tools<br>and methods, semantic networks, and how dictionaries are used. The book<br> is<br>fully referenced and indexed.<br><br>The reader may be used independently for reference or as reading<br> material<br>for a course of study. It will also be an essential companion for<br> <i>The<br>Oxford Guide to Practical Lexicography</i> by Sue Atkins and Michael<br>Rundell, to be published by Oxford University Press in 2008. <br><br><br><br>Linguistic Field(s): General Linguistics<br> Lexicography<br><br><br>Written In: English (eng)<br> <br>See this book announcement on our website: <br><a target="_blank"
