Dictionaries Medieval Germanic Lang

The last half-century has seen a large number of nationally-based or language-specific lexicographical projects. This volume is the fruit of comparative discussions on the majority of those projects which centre on medieval Germanic languages. The first half of the volume uses a standardized format to present the history, progress, impact of the project and the electronic specifications of the databases. The second half comprises seven studies on particular methodological problems or applications of work on these dictionaries.
