Chapter VII: Part 7

Text size

The French Academy, after five years' consideration, began their
dictionary, on the 7th of February 1639, by examining the letter A,
which took them nine months to go through. The word Academie was for
some time omitted by oversight. They decided, on the 8th of March
1638, not to cite authorities, and they have since always claimed the
right of making their own examples. Olivier justifies them by saying
that for eighty years all the best writers belonged to their body, and
they could not be expected to cite each other. Their design was to
raise the language to its last perfection, and to open a road to reach
the highest eloquence. Antoine Furetiere, one of their members,
compiled a dictionary which he says cost him forty years' labour for
ten hours a day, and the manuscript filled fifteen chests. He gave
words of all kinds, especially technical, names of persons and places,
and phrases. As a specimen, he published his _Essai_, Paris, 1684,
4to; Amst. 1685, 12mo. The Academy charged him with using the
materials they had prepared for their dictionary, and expelled him, on
the 22nd of January 1685, for plagiarism. He died on the 14th of May
1688, in the midst of the consequent controversy and law suit. His
complete work was published, with a preface by Bayle, La Haye and
Rotterdam, 1690, fol., 3 vols.; again edited by Basnage de Beauval,
1701; La Haye, 1707, fol., 4 vols. From the edition of 1701 the very
popular so-called _Dictionnaire de Trevoux_, Trevoux, 1704, fol., 2
vols., was made by the Jesuits, who excluded everything that seemed to
favour the Calvinism of Basnage. The last of its many editions is
Paris, 1771, fol., 8 vols. The Academy's dictionary was first printed
Paris, 1694, fol., 2 vols. They began the revision in 1700; second

Castelli put into his lexicon. His MS. is now at Cambridge, and, with
those at Florence and Oxford, was used by Bernstein. Elias bar
Shinaya, born 975, metropolitan of Nisibis, 1009, wrote a Syriac and
Arabic lexicon, entitled _Kit[=a]b [=u]t Tarjuman fi Taalem Loghat es
S[=u]ri[=a]n_ (Book called the Interpreter for teaching the Language
of the Syrians), of which there is a MS. in the British Museum. It was

Germanus, and published at Rome by Obicinus, 1636, 8vo. It is a

before A.H. 175 [A.D. 791], aged seventy-four): the _Sihah_ of Jauhari
(died 398 [1003]): the _Mohkam_ of Ibn Sidah the Andalusian, who was
blind, and died A.H. 458 [A.D. 1066], aged about sixty: the _Asas_ of
Zamakhshari (born 467 [1075], died 538 [1144]), "a most excellent
repertory of choice words and phrases": the _Lis[=a]n el 'Arab_ of Ibn
Mukarram (born 630 [1232], died 711 [1311]); Lane's copy is in 28
vols. 4to: the _Kamus_ (The Sea) of Fairuzabadi (born 729 [1328], died
816 [1413]),: the _Taj el Arus_, by Murtada Ez Zebadi (born A.D. 1732,
died 1791)--the copy made for Lane is in 24 vols. thick 4to. The

Kamus. It was undertaken in 1842, at the suggestion and at the cost of
the 6th duke of Northumberland, then Lord Prudhoe, by Mr Lane, who
returned to Egypt for the purpose, and lived in Cairo for seven years
to study, and obtain copies of, the great MS. lexicons in the
libraries of the mosques, few of which had ever been seen by a
