Bücher von R. R. K. Hartmann

Dictionaries are among the most frequently consulted books, yet we know remarkably little about them. This professional handbook and easy to use reference work provides an up-to-date and forward looking survey of lexicography.

'Teaching and Researching Lexicography' explains the relationship between lexicographic practice (dictionary-making) and theory (dictionary research), with special reference to the perspectives of dictionary history, criticism, typology, structure and use. It particularly looks at the use and relevance of dictionaries in second language learning.
