Lexicons <strong>of</strong> Early Modern English (LEME) gives<br />
scholars unprecedented access to early books and<br />
manuscripts that document the English language<br />
from the beginning <strong>of</strong> printing in England to<br />
1702. With over 150 monolingual, bilingual, and<br />
polyglot dictionaries and glossaries (in which either<br />
source or target language is English), as well as linguistic<br />
treatises, and encyclopedic or topical work<br />
LEME provides exciting opportunities for research<br />
for historians <strong>of</strong> the English language. A half-million<br />
word-entries devised by contemporary speakers<br />
<strong>of</strong> early modern English describe the meaning <strong>of</strong><br />
words, and their equivalents in languages such as<br />
French, Italian, Spanish, Latin, Greek, Hebrew,<br />
and other tongues encountered then in Europe,<br />
America, and Asia. LEME <strong>of</strong>fers:<br />
• searchable word-entries (simple, wildcard,<br />
Boolean, and proximity)<br />
• browsable page-by-page transcriptions <strong>of</strong> the lexicons,<br />
indexed by date, author, title, and subject<br />
• a selection-list <strong>of</strong> editorially-lemmatized headwords<br />
• lists <strong>of</strong> headwords unique to each lexical text in<br />
the database<br />
• bibliographies <strong>of</strong> over 800 primary lexical texts,<br />
and secondary historical and critical literature,<br />
with biographical information on lexicographers<br />
• introduction, help, and information on editorial<br />
procedures<br />
