The Historical Dictionary of Modern Greek as a historical dictionary


Io Manolessou
Abstract

This paper presents the methodological principles underlying the Historical Dictionary of Modern Greek (ILNE) of the Academy of Athens with respect to the diachronic examination of the vocabulary, taking into consideration the latest advances in the domain of historical lexicography. The issues examined include: a) the historical lexicography of the Greek language and its representatives b) the delimitation of the historical period covered by the ILNE and the problems associated with it c) the dating and the etymological analysis of the material and d) the lemmatisation and presentation of the material on the basis of historical criteria.
