Abstract
|
:
|
Modern dictionaries, the kind most people use, are often the result of a ruthless paring away of many glorious words--so that only the standard, functional, current ones remain. A treasure by every lover of language, this volume reclaims past glories of the language, presenting magnificent words that have the scent of generations and societies past.
