Book excerpt: Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-A Concise Dictionary of Middle English from A.D. 1150 to 1580 by Walter W. Skeat.This book contains a historical context, where past events or the study and narration of these events are examined. The historical context refers to the circumstances and incidents surrounding an event. This context is formed by everything that, in some way, influences the event when it happens. A fact is always tied to its time: that is, to its time. Therefore, when analyzing events that took place tens, hundreds or thousands of years ago, it is essential to know the historical context to understand them. Otherwise, we would be analyzing and judging what happened in a totally different era with a current perspective.Walter William Skeat, FBA (21 November 1835 - 6 October 1912) was the pre-eminent British philologist of his time. He was instrumental in developing the English language as a higher education subject in the United Kingdom.Skeat was born in London to architect William Skeat, of Perry Hill, Sydenham, later of Mount Street, Park Lane, City of Westminster, and his wife Sarah, daughter of Timothy Bluck. The Skeat family were a branch of an ancient Surrey family, and were resident in the parish of St George Hanover Square since the 1700s.] He was educated at King's College School (Wimbledon), Highgate School, and Christ's College, Cambridge. He became a fellow at Christ's College in July 1860.

Book excerpt: This is an annotated version of the book1. contains an updated biography of the author at the end of the book for a better understanding of the text.2. This book has been checked and corrected for spelling errorsThe present work is intended to meet, in some measure, the requirementsof those who wish to make some study of Middle-English, and who find adifficulty in obtaining such assistance as will enable them to find outthe meanings and etymologies of the words most essential to theirpurpose.The best Middle-English Dictionary, that by Dr. Mätzner of Berlin, hasonly reached the end of the letter H; and it is probable that it willnot be completed for many years. The only Middle-English Dictionary thathas been carried on to the end of the alphabet is that by the late Dr.Stratmann, of Krefeld. This is a valuable work, and is indispensable forthe more advanced student. However, the present work will still supply adeficiency, as it differs from Stratmann's Dictionary in manyparticulars. We have chosen as our Main Words, where possible, the mosttypical of the forms or spellings of the period of Chaucer and PiersPlowman; in Stratmann, on the other hand, the form chosen as Main Wordis generally the oldest form in which it appears, frequently one of thetwelfth century. Moreover, with regard to authorities, we refer in thecase of the great majority of our forms to a few, cheap, easilyaccessible works, whereas Stratmann's authorities are mainly thenumerous and expensive publications of the Early English Text Society.Lastly, we have paid special attention to the French element inMiddle-English, whereas Stratmann is somewhat deficient in respect ofwords of French origin[1]. The book which has generally been found ofmost assistance to the learner is probably Halliwell's Dictionary ofArchaic and Provincial Words; but this is not specially confined to theMiddle-English period, and the plan of it differs in several respectsfrom that of the present work. [Footnote 1: A new and thoroughly revised edition of Stratmann's Dictionary is being prepared by Mr. Henry Bradley, for the Delegates of the Clarendon Press.]The scope of this volume will be best understood by an explanation ofthe circumstances that gave rise to it. Some useful and comparativelyinexpensive volumes illustrative of the Middle-English period have beenissued by the Clarendon Press; all of which are furnished withglossaries, explaining all the important words, with exact references tothe passages wherein the words occur. In particular, the three usefulhand-books containing Specimens of English (from 1150 down to 1580)together supply no less than sixty-seven characteristic extracts fromthe most important literary monuments of this period; and the threeglossaries to these books together fill more than 370 pages ofclosely-printed type in double columns. The idea suggested itself thatit would be highly desirable to bring the very useful information thusalready collected _under one alphabet_, and this has now been effected.At the same time, a reference has in every case been carefully given tothe _particular_ Glossarial Index which registers each form here cited,so that it is perfectly easy for any one who consults our book to refer,not merely to the particular Index thus noted, but to the referencesgiven in that Index; and so, by means of such references, to find everypassage referred to, with its proper context. Moreover the student onlyrequires, for this purpose, a small array of the text-books in theClarendon Press Series, instead of a more or less complete set ofeditions of Middle-English texts, the possession of which necessitates aconsiderable outlay of money. By this plan, so great a _compression_ ofinformation has been achieved, that a large number of the articles givea summary such as can be readily expanded

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the etymological part three stops are used as symbols in connexion with the cognate forms cited, namely the comma, the semi-colon, and the colon. The comma is used to connect various spellings of a word, as well as parallel forms cited from nearly connected languages; for instance, s.v. daunger, the OF. forms are so connected. The semi-colon between two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent, and that the preceding one is directly derived from, and is historically connected with the one following this symbol; for instance, s.v. bugle, the OF. bugle is the phonetic equivalent of the Lat. buculum, and is immediately derived therefrom. The colon between two forms denotes that the two forms are phonetically equivalent, and that the form following this symbol is an earlier, more primitive form than the one preceding, without an immediate interborrowing between the languages being asserted; for instance, s.v. demen, the Goth. dómjan is an older form than the AS. déman, but déman is not borrowed from the Gothic. The abbreviation 'cp.' introduces other cognate forms, and has the same value as the symbol + in Skeat's Dictionaries.

In October 1864, he returned to Cambridge University as a mathematics lecturer, a position he held until 1871. Skeat soon developed an interest in the history of the English language.
