商品簡介
Dictionaries are complex, many-layered works: not only are they shaped by the cultural discourses of their time; they also actively shape the ways in which we perceive the world. Tracing a historical journey from eighteenth-century Europe to the present day, the contributions in this volume examine a rich variety of English and Romance dictionaries. Whether monolingual or bilingual, general-purpose or specialised, dictionaries emerge as indispensable components of the dominant discourses that we so often take for granted. This book sheds light on how dictionaries acquired this influential role.
