Prospectus and specimen of a mediaeval Latin-English dictionary based upon the great work of Du Cange /
Dayman, Edward Arthur,1807-1890.
[London : John Murray,
1870?]
The pressing need for a new medieval Latin dictionary had prompted the publisher John Murray in the late nineteenth century to initiate the preparation of an abridgement of Du Cange, to be edited by E. A. Dayman assisted by J. H. Hessels. This plan was abandoned in 1882.
