The Neo-Latin Lexicon
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Extract
The Neo-Latin Lexicon was launched two years ago with the publication of a brief prospectus appearing in the Winter, 1955, issue of Renaissance News (vii, 160-162). That prospectus announced the initiation of a cooperative project in Neo-Latin lexicography which would study and codify the Latin coinages and neologisms of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Subsequently, an editorial committee was formed consisting of R. T. Bruère (Chicago), Fred W. Householder, Jr. (Cornell), James R. Naiden (Lakeside School), and Paul W. Blackford (Western Illinois State College). With the publication of a detailed outline of the project in Classical Weekly (No. 8, March 7, 1955) and in the Bibliothèque d'Humanisme et Renaissance (1955, xvii, 2), and with the distribution of that outline to scholars with known interests and proficiencies in the field of modern Latin studies, a group of collaborators was recruited.
