In the first book-length study devoted to Latin and Greek dictionaries, classicists examine such dictionaries from the ancient world to the present, and in some cases dictionaries in progress. The dictionaries can cast light on the people and times that produced them, and on the nature and development of language and lexicography. The topics include Greek dictionaries ancient and modern, the single-author lexicon, myths and markets of Liddell and Scott, the Cambridge Greek Lexicon's approach to learners' lexica, and the making of the Dictionary of Medieval Latin from British Sources. Seven of the nine essays have been adapted from presentations to a gathering at Oxford University in June 2009, the other two being commissioned later for the volume.
