At last! Godine found a use for the word "sciolist" in a subtitle! This is a throwback to Godine's core of erudition on obscure but fascinating subjects. Unique history of lexicographers and the dictionaries they created. Abundantly illustrated. Author, Bryan A. Garner (Garner's Modern English Usage), is a renowned expert on the English language. Primary audience is an intersection of bibliophiles, history buffs, and readers who love words and their meanings. For readers of books such as The Professor and the Madman, this story of dictionaries is enormously entertaining and revealing. Publication will coincide with the opening of an exhibition of the same name at the Grolier Club on May 1, 2024. The exhibition was curated by Bryan A. Garner and Jack Lynch and runs through July 27, 2024.
