Bewusste Terminologievermittlung in deutschsprachigen architektonischen Fachbüchern des 16. bis 18. Jahrhunderts. Ein Beitrag zur historischen Fachlexikographie

Abstract

German authors considered easy comprehensibility of their architecture books very important and therefore they included in them a number of explanatory terminological notes of varying complexity. These notes gradually evolved into elaborate terminological glossaries. This paper explores the terminology and its presentation, as well as the authors’ motivation.
