Description

Greek Dictionary. ESTIENNE. Thesaurus Graecae Linguae.
1572

 
ESTIENNE, Henri. Thesaurus Graecae Linguae.
Ginevra, excudebat Henr. Stephanus [Henri Estienne], 1572

Prima edizione. Questo monumentale dizionario greco divenne la base della lessicologia greca; per trecento anni nessun dizionario avrebbe potuto competere con quello di Estienne.
Schreiber: “remains to this day the essential tool for the study of Greek, since there still exists no substitute for it”. Considine: “most comprehensive and sophisticated lexical record of any European language that had ever been published”.

Adams S-1791; Schreiber, Estiennes 181; Brunet II, 1078; Renouard, Estienne 138; Considine, Dictionaries in Early Modern Europe, 2008, p. 82.
