Book excerpt: With this Doctoral Thesis, we study the military terminology during its stage of great development , both linguistically and scientically: Renaissance. The Renaissance Fortification and Military Science Glossary is our main contribution. Included also are a series of appendices about orthographic variants, abbreviations, acronyms, also authors and related works, and finally annotated illustrations. The remaining sections of this Thesis complement the Glossary. First, we provide an overview of the military science in the Golden Age, where we highlight most relevant aspects. Consequently, we review the concept about the military revolution postulated by the specialists in reference to the period studied. In this way we list the impact that it brought, and we also emphasize the nations which were protagonist of this revolution. On the other hand, we give a lexical study focusing on terminological units of our Glossary. Thus, we analyse the borrowings, the morphological and semantic procedures, moreover we carry out a clasification of notional fields of military vocabulary. The philological approach of this terminology we allow us to achieve a greater knowledge of the Militia and Fortification lexicon and contribute to the completion of one of the empty areas in historical lexicology. Finally, we include a chapter in which we collect the history of Spanish military lexicography, mainly of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries; both represent the highest period in the publication of such repertories. Nevertheless these dictionaries are unknown for the most of the experts concerned with the Spanish lexicography. Anyway, the relative antiquity of these dictionaries prevents them from becoming in the alternative to current lexicography for this specialized field, so we consider important our Military Glossary, realized with a philological rigor and coherence. With this Glossary we intend to cover in the Spanish language the lack of lexical inventories of militia.
