Jamieson’s dictionary of Scots : the story of the first historical dictionary of the Scots language by Susan Rennie
Scott, MR
Authors
Abstract
The Reverend John Jamieson's contribution to Scottish lexicography is central to the historiography of the study of Scots as a distinct variety of language. Furthermore, his methodologies have proven extremely influential for subsequent major Scottish and English dictionary projects, yet his life and accomplishments are not well-known in either academic or popular culture. Susan Rennie's book attempts to redress Jamieson's obscure status, recognising his national and international significance, and contextualising the man and his scholarly achievements.
