ANDictionary,

What a stunning 12th century definition of the work of lexicographers by Marie de France! Her passage beautifully captures how earlier scholars often wrote in metaphorical or obscure language, requiring future readers to decipher and interpret the meaning. But Marie is also remarkably prescient in recognizing this interpretive process as the essence of creating a gloss (or dictionary) elucidating the symbolic "letter" of a text by bridging context and definitions.

ANDictionary,

For all the dictionary-makers โ€“ and their forever unfinished yet deeply meaningful job: Happy Dictionary Day!
