The need for constructing a lexicographical theory with a particular focus on specialised dictionaries for learners is well documented in recent publications. This will imply paying attention to, at least, four basic lexicographic categories: learners; the learner's situation; the learner's needs; dictionary assistance. In one or other way, these categories are analysed in this book, whose eleven chapters are grouped into three parts. Part 1 reflects on some of the main ideas defended by the function theory of lexicography, perhaps the theoretical framework that has paid more attention to specialised lexicography. Part 2 presents some proposals that have already being explored in the field of general learner's dictionary and must be incorporated into specialised metalexicography: cultural aspects; figurative meaning; the inclusion of grammatical information; the use of corpora. Part 3 introduces the state of play regarding specialised dictionaries in China and offers some ideas for coping with the proliferation of terminological glossaries in Internet. The book also describes Enrique Alcaraz's academic achievements, together with some personal anecdotes, and a personal short tribute to his memory.

Per quanto riguarda la documentazione dei lessemi derivati da nomi propri, anche la pur avanzata lessicografia dell'italiano mostra ancora notevoli lacune. Il Deonomasticon Italicum offre in questo campo una sistematica e commentata ricerca storica. Tramite un intenso ed accurato spoglio di testi storici e contemporanei, che considera anche fonti finora trascurate è possibile riportare datazioni molto recenti e segnalare un gran numero di nuove attestazioni e di varianti formali. La prima parte del dizionario comprende i derivati da nomi geografici (4 volumi), con l'inserimento dell'ambito particolarmente interessante degli etnici, la seconda parte è riservata ai derivati da nomi di persona (2 volumi). L'opera è redatta in lingua italiana. Le sigle bibliografiche sono disponibili in internet (l'indirizzo è http://romanistik.phil.uni-sb.de/schweickard/). Sono disponibili, fino a questo momento, i 6 fascicoli che costituiscono il volume I (1997-2002) e la relativa copertina ed inoltre un "Supplemento bibliografico". A partire da ora il Deonomasticon Italicum non verrá più pubblicato in fascicoli, ma direttamente in volumi rilegati.

In der Metalexikographie besteht an der Notwendigkeit syntagmatischer Angaben in allgemeinsprachigen Wörterbüchern kein Zweifel. Sie tragen entscheidend dazu bei, dass zweisprachige Wörterbücher aktiv nutzbar sind und ermöglichen eine detaillierte Beschreibung der Äquivalenzbeziehungen zwischen Ausgangs- und Zielsprache. In dieser Monographie wird der Zusammenhang zwischen Syntagmatik und Lexikographie erstmals systematisch dargestellt. Dazu befasst sich die Studie zunächst in theoretischer Hinsicht mit dem sprachwissenschaftlichen Konzept der Syntagmatik, seiner forschungsgeschichtlichen Entwicklung und schließlich mit seiner Anwendung auf und Anpassung an die Lexikographie. Die Untersuchung stellt vor, in welcher Form und dank welcher Angaben die Syntagmatik in ein zweisprachiges Wörterbuch Eingang findet und welche sprachlichen Phänomene dadurch abbildbar werden. Das weite Spektrum syntagmatischer Restriktionen, die durch den Lexikoneintrag des jeweiligen Lemmazeichens bedingt sind, wird in der Studie mittels der abhängigen Zweitelemente in lexikalische und morphosyntaktische Determinationen unterteilt. Der praktische Teil der Studie untersucht eine Auswahl der bekanntesten spanisch-deutschen Äquivalenzwörterbücher auf ihren Umgang mit der Syntagmatik.

Algebraic geometry is one of the most classic subjects of university research in mathematics. It has a very complicated language that makes life very difficult for beginners. This book is a little dictionary of algebraic geometry: for every of the most common words in algebraic geometry, it contains its definition, several references and the statements of the main theorems about that term (without their proofs). Also some terms of other subjects, close to algebraic geometry, have been included. It was born to help beginners that know some basic facts of algebraic geometry, but not every basic fact, to follow seminars and to read papers, by providing them with basic definitions and statements. The form of a dictionary makes it very easy and quick to consult.

During the reign of Louis XIV, the figurative arts serve the royal propaganda and glorification of the sovereign. The essay Des Principes de l’Architecture, de la Sculpture et de la Peinture (1676) was written by the historian André Félibien with the aim of describing arts during the Grand Siècle. This essay contains one of the first specialised dictionaries on artistic lexicon. In this article, we aim to analyse the structure and contents of the dictionary (nomenclature, syntactic and semantic categories, definitions, specialised marks). Moreover, we will focus on the preface of the essay, in which the author describes the difficulties encountered in the terminological description of the artistic domain.

Wichtige sprachlich-kulturelle Unterschiede zwischen dem Englischen und dem Deutschen werden erklärt. Das durchdachte Layout erleichtert den schnellen Zugang zum Dargestellten. The dictionary is based on a new concept which takes into account recent developments and findings in lexicographical research. It combines the best features of monolingual and bilingual dictionaries as well as learner dictionaries. Every sense of a word is first fully explained and then provided with translation equivalents.
