Abstract

From 4 to 7 July 1994 the University of Leeds hosted the first International Medieval Congress. Three sessions were dedicated to "Dictionaries of Medieval Languages". They dealt with the following themes: "Projects", in which several dictionary projects were presented, "Historical Background", which focuses on the importance of extensive knowledge of the historical background when working on a dictionary of a medieval language, and "Scribes and Scholars", elaborating on the philological problems a lexicographer encounters when working with old handwritten source material and its editions.
