Download or read book The Oxford History of English Lexicography written by A. P. Cowie and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2008-12-04 with total page 1017 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These substantial volumes present the fullest account yet published of the lexicography of English from its origins in medieval glosses, through its rapid development in the eighteenth century, to a fully-established high-tech industry that is as reliant as ever on learning and scholarship. The history covers dictionaries of English and its national varieties, including American English, with numerous references to developments in Europe and elsewhere which have influenced the course of English lexicography. Part one of Volume I explores the early development of glosses and bilingual and multilingual dictionaries and examines their influence on lexicographical methods and ideas. Part two presents a systematic history of monolingual dictionaries of English and includes extensive chapters on Johnson, Webster and his successors in the USA, and the OED. It also contains descriptions of the development of dictionaries of national and regional varieties, and of Old and Middle English, and concludes with an account of the computerization of the OED. The specialized dictionaries described in Volume II include dictionaries of science, dialects, synonyms, etymology, pronunciation, slang and cant, quotations, phraseology, and personal and place names. This volume also includes an account of the inception and development of dictionaries developed for particular users, especially foreign learners of English. The Oxford History of English Lexicography unites scholarship with readability. It provides a unique and accessible reference for scholars and professional lexicographers and offers a series of fascinating encounters with the men and women involved over the centuries in the making of works of profound national and linguistic importance.

Download or read book Russia s Final Destination written by Abraham DeAlmeida PhD and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2023-11-06 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may be wondering why Russia invaded Ukraine and whether it has anything to do with the prophecies in the Bible concerning Israel. Abraham DeAlmeida, Ph.D., a pastor with three doctorates in theology, tackles that question and many others in this book. He details references the Bible makes about “Gog,” which is the nation now known as Russia, and argues that current events are definitely tied to prophecies in the Bible. He also observes how the Russians and Palestinians have taken advantage of America’s flight from Afghanistan. The book also zeroes in on Israel in detail, noting that having withstood so much persecution, the Israelis are once again home, with more Jews returning there due to the current war causing widespread opposition and hatred toward them. Lastly, the author examines and explains the End Times, including the Rapture of the Church, the world government (first beast), the Antichrist (second beast) identified by 666, Great Tribulation, Millennium, New Jerusalem, and the glorious eternity with God. Join the author as he explores the significance of Israel, how current events connect to prophecies in the Bible, how it will all end, and what we can surmise about Russia’s Final Destination.
