Synopsis

This book is a historical and literary analysis of a 15th-century collection of vocabulary definitions from the Latin language. The author traces the evolution of the collection from its initial appearance in the 1480s through its multiple reprintings and revisions over the next century. The book also examines the collection's place within the broader context of Renaissance humanism and its influence on the development of modern lexicography. By examining the collection's changing content and structure over time, the author provides insights into the changing nature of language and vocabulary during this period. This study will be of interest to scholars of Renaissance literature, the history of the book, and the history of linguistics.
