About This Item
EB: Oxford University Press, USA. Good+. 1969. Reprint. Hardcover. Hardcover. Large 4to. Oxford and the Clarendon Press, Oxford, UK. 1969. Reprint of edition of 1879. Xiv, 2019 pgs. Bound in blue cloth boards with gilt titles. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. One of the classic works of lexicography, this is a revised edition of E. A. Andrew's translation of Freund's great Latin-German dictionary of the nineteenth century. This is the classic Lewis and Short Latin-English Dictionary. Its only real contender is the newer Oxford Latin Dictionary (OLD). However, the OLD is handicapped by its limited scope: anyone interested in Late, Ecclesiastical, Medieval, or Neo-Latin need not apply. Lewis and Short is more comprehensive. EB; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 2034 pages .
