Der Wortschatz des 8. Jahrhunderts (und fruherer Quellen)

This dictionary contains the complete OHG lexis from the 8th century (and from earlier sources) and presents the first part of a planned chronological dictionary of German vocabulary. This is the first work that can claim to give a complete account of German words in Latin sources of this age and of borrowings into Latin. The words are categorised first by word families (citing sources with a chronological division into quarter-centuries and with a regional classification), then by first occurrences, and finally by NHG words with equivalents in the 8th century or earlier. This chronological dictionary is of central importance for etymology and lexical history, but also for philological and historical enquiries.
