Cassell's Standard Italian Dictionary, Thumb-indexed

Thumb-indexed edition

It takes its dignified place in the Cassell series, that fountainhead and model of "modern lexicography," said Le Lingue del Mondo. "The compilers have given an excellent working tool to the English and ourselves."

This entirely new dictionary is designed as a mirror of contemporary Italian life but it includes obsolete words and phrases which are recurrent in the works of classic Italian writers for the benefit of readers and students of Italian literature.

Biography

Piero Rebora worked throughout the last twenty-five years of his life on the compilation of Cassell's Italian Dictionary. He was Professor of English Studies at the State University of Milan.
