	CRUM, E. A Coptic Dictionary OUP.

This compilation presents a total of 3,308 recorded words (excluding variants), drawn directly from the texts. Each word is given with variant word-forms, its context in English summary, the original or equivalent words in Greek and illustration of its use. Drawn from sources including Sa'idic and Bohairic manuscripts, medieval vocabularies, Manichean papyri, magical texts, inscriptions, and official, ecclesiastical and private documents, the dictionary offers a comprehensive view of the language in all its dialects and all aspects of its literature: biblical, patristic and mundane.

X/982pp. Hardback edition ¶ The aim of the Strasbourg teacher Petrus Dasypodius (Peter Hasenfuss) was “to prise out the old, dirty gems and replace their barbarisms with the true classical Latin.” In his two-part Dictionarium, first published in 1536, he achieved this goal by anybody’s standards: between 1536 and 1600 alone the work went through at least 19 editions and a further 8 editions appeared reworked by the Cologne printer P. Metternich as Dasypodius Catholicus. Dasypodius’ work was so successful and had such international influence (in the Czech lands and the Low Countries), that it is no exaggeration to call it the beginning of modern lexicography in the German-speaking region and the school dictionary of 16th-century Germany.

	EITEL, ERNEST JOHN (JOHAN ) A Chinese-English Dictionary in the Cantonese Dialect. . Revised and enlarged by Immanuel Gottlieb Genaehr of the Rhenish missionary society. Hongkong, Kelly & Walsh, Ltd. 2nd edition 1910, XVIII, 1417pp + Supplement, xlviipp. + 3 pp of corrections and additions. Last sheet of these corrections suffered some tears and these have been partly repaired with cellotape. In a more recent full cloth binding, text partly sl. foxed, browned throughout. The first edtion came out in 1877 and this 2nd edition starts with the author's 1877 preface. Eitel's Chinese Dictionary in the Cantonese Dialect (1877, 2nd ed. 1910-1) started out as an authorized revision of Williams' Tonic Dictionary, but later took on a life of its own as Eitel attempted to synthesize the Tonic with the vocabulary of James Legge's translations of the Chinese classics, as well as the imperial Kang Xi dictionary used by native scholars of Mandarin. The work is notable not least for its avowed intention to serve not merely as a glossary of the spoken language, but also as a model of 'the general written language of China'. Eitel's apparent attempt to standardize the 'reading pronunciation' of Cantonese may well have been motivated by his experience as Director of Chinese Studies, a position to which he was appointed two years before the publication of his dictionary. Originally a missionary with the Basel and Lutheran missions, he later became Inspector of Schools and Chinese Secretary in the British colonial administration. [ DL II/5].

Metternich as Dasypodius Catholicus. Dasypodius’ work was so successful and had such international influence (in the Czech lands and the Low Countries), that it is no exaggeration to call it the beginning of modern lexicography in the German-speaking region and the school dictionary of 16th-century Germany.

	EITEL, ERNEST JOHN (JOHAN ) A Chinese-English Dictionary in the Cantonese Dialect. . Revised and enlarged by Immanuel Gottlieb Genaehr of the Rhenish missionary society. Hongkong, Kelly & Walsh, Ltd. 2nd edition 1910, XVIII, 1417pp + Supplement, xlviipp. + 3 pp of corrections and additions. Last sheet of these corrections suffered some tears and these have been partly repaired with cellotape. In a more recent full cloth binding, text partly sl. foxed, browned throughout. The first edtion came out in 1877 and this 2nd edition starts with the author's 1877 preface. Eitel's Chinese Dictionary in the Cantonese Dialect (1877, 2nd ed. 1910-1) started out as an authorized revision of Williams' Tonic Dictionary, but later took on a life of its own as Eitel attempted to synthesize the Tonic with the vocabulary of James Legge's translations of the Chinese classics, as well as the imperial Kang Xi dictionary used by native scholars of Mandarin. The work is notable not least for its avowed intention to serve not merely as a glossary of the spoken language, but also as a model of 'the general written language of China'. Eitel's apparent attempt to standardize the 'reading pronunciation' of Cantonese may well have been motivated by his experience as Director of Chinese Studies, a position to which he was appointed two years before the publication of his dictionary. Originally a missionary with the Basel and Lutheran missions, he later became Inspector of Schools and Chinese Secretary in the British colonial administration. [ DL II/5].
