Abstract

Liddell And Scott
April 19, 1883 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "A Greek-English Lexicon," compiled by Henry George Liddell, and Robert Scott. It is not in England alone, of course, that advances have been made in lexicography; and Liddell and Scott owe very much of what is good in their work to their German predecessors and contemporaries. The seventh edition of Liddell and Scott, compared with the sixth, shows an increase in space of printed paper of nearly five per cent. The number of pages is diminished, but their height is considerably increased. The preface tells that the matter contained in the sixth edition has been considerably compressed. These additions greatly increase the usefulness of the book.
