Un Devancier De Cotgrave: La Vie Et Les Ceuvres De Claude De Sainliens Alias Claudius Holyband [French]

By Lucy E. Farrer

Un Devancier De Cotgrave: La Vie Et Les Ceuvres De Claude De Sainliens Alias Claudius Holyband by Lucy E. Farrer delves into the life and works of Claude de Sainliens, also known as Claudius Holyband, a significant figure in the development of French language studies. This meticulously researched biography, originally published in 1908, sheds light on Sainliens' contributions as a lexicographer and teacher during the 16th century. The book explores his influence on Randle Cotgrave, whose French-English dictionary was a landmark achievement. Farrer's study offers valuable insights into the linguistic landscape of Renaissance Europe and the individuals who shaped our understanding of the French language. This book is essential for scholars of French language and literature, as well as those interested in the history of lexicography.
