„Habent sua fata libelli“: Zur Entdeckung einer Hommage an August Dillmann vor hundert Jahren

Abstract

An unsigned homage to August Dillmann on the occasion of his 100th birthday was recently found in a copy of Dillmann's Lexicon linguae aethiopicae, after the 200th anniversary of his birthday. The text was presumably composed by Bruno Violet, who was Dillmann's student and the previous owner of the copy of the Lexicon in question.
