The Ilchester Lectures on Comparative Lexicography, delivered at the Taylor Institution in Oxford in 1883, is a book written by Carl Abel. The book is a comprehensive exploration of the field of comparative lexicography, which involves the comparison of words and their meanings across different languages. Throughout the book, Abel discusses the various methods and techniques used in comparative lexicography, including the use of etymology, phonetics, and morphology. He also provides examples of how these methods can be applied to different languages, including English, German, French, and Latin. One of the key themes of the book is the importance of context in understanding the meaning of words. Abel argues that a word's meaning can change depending on the context in which it is used, and that this must be taken into account when comparing words across different languages. Overall, the Ilchester Lectures on Comparative Lexicography is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the study of language and linguistics, and provides a fascinating insight into the complex and multifaceted world of comparative lexicography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
