About the book >.>.> This book represents an early fruit of one of the British Academy’s most prestigious research projects the compilation of a comprehensive Dictionary of Medieval Latin from British Sources. Latin served for 1000 years as the principal medium of writing in the British Isles the language of St. Patrick and Bede of Domesday Book and Magna Carta of Anselm and Wyclyffe Roger Bacon and Francis Bacon. Baxter and Johnson’s Medieval Latin Word- List from British and Irish Sources appeared in 1934 and was reprinted five times. The distinguished lexicographer R. E. Latham has based this Revised Word-List on a re- examination of the material previously used and supplemented it with new material from a wide range of sources. Baxter and Johnson dealt with a vocabulary of some 20000 words; the Revised Word-List contains twice as much matter. more than The entries are presented in a highly condensed form designed to illustrate the historical development of the language while meeting the practical needs of students. A brief Introduction discusses some of the problems that confront the pioneer in this linguistic jungle. (MP)
