Abstract:

The book examines the work of Renaissance lexicographers such as John
Palsgrave, Claudius Hollyband, Richard Huloet, and Peter Levins, with
particular focus on the author at work: the struggles of these lexicographers
to understand the semantic range of a word and to explain and transpose it
into another language; their assessment of different linguistic and cultural
expressions, and their morphological analyses; and their efforts to find ways
of structuring and presenting lexical information. Gabriele Stein explores the
influence of the works by Ambrogio Calepino, Robert Estienne, Hadrianus
Junius, and Conrad Gesner, and the extent to which bi- and multilingual
dictionaries in the 16th century are often pan-European in character; she also
provides the first in-depth and richly-illustrated discussion of the use of
typographical resources to present the structure of lexical information.
