Sommario/riassunto: | This book serves as a welcome addition to the better known English Dictionary from Cawdrey to Johnson, 1604-1755, by Starnes & Noyes (new edition published by Benjamins 1991). Whereas Starnes & Noyes describe the history of English lexicography as an evolutionary progress-by-accumulation process, Professor Hayashi focuses on issues of method and theory, starting with John Palsgrave's Lesclarissement de la langue francoyse (1530), to John Walker's A Critical Pronouncing Dictionary and Expositor of the English Language (1791). |
