Termcraft: The emergence of terminology science - Volume 4: A Dictionary of Ancient Terms - Paperback

by J. L. F. Lambert (Author)

This Dictionary gives direct access to the ancient words illustrated extensively in Termcraft's volumes 1, 2, and 3. It mainly regroups the Ancient World's seminal notions Greek philosophers would speculate on and merge into a theory of reasoning and creation, in particular those of the elements, determinatives, Pythagorean opposites, and Aristotelian categories. The use of metaphors and descriptions can be found in reference to early technical concepts, such as 'sky's foundation', 'language changer', and 'words of heaven' for 'horizon, ' 'interpreter', and 'thunder'. (Vintchan, Sumerian, hieroglyphic Egyptian, Akkadian, Hebrew, Arabic, Eblaite, Ugaritic, Sanskrit, Greek, Latin.)
