Deception and Detection in Eighteenth-Century Britain
ISBN: 9780754665281 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the first extended treatment of the debates surrounding public deception in eighteenth-century Britain, Jack Lynch contends that forgery, fakery, and fraud make explicit the usually unspoken grounds on which Britons made sense of their world.

Fixing Babel: An Historical Anthology of Applied English Lexicography
ISBN: 9781611488098 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. We all think we know what a dictionary is for and how to use one, so most of us skip the first pages the front matter and go right to the words we wish to look up. Yet dictionary users have not always known how English works and my book reproduces and examines for the first time important texts in which seventeenth- and eighteenth-century dictionary authors explain choices and promote ideas to readers, their end users. Unlike French, Spanish, and Italian dictionaries compiled during this time and published by national academies, the goal of English dictionaries was usually not to purify the...
