This is the first scholarly edition of the "Dictionnaire
RA(c)publicain et RA(c)volutionnaire" (DRR) by Jean Rodoni. It also
includes a collection of anecdotes (1795) assembled by Rodoni and
very closely bound up with the Dictionary. The volume opens with a
detailed Introduction by the editors. Unlike other contemporary
revolutionary dictionaries, the DRR centers largely on everyday
vocabulary and draws in a variety of ways on the "Dictionnaire de
l'AcadA(c)mie FranAaise." The DRR is only the third homonym
dictionary in the entire history of French lexicography. It not
only describes linguistic phenomena but also conveys a graphic
impression of everyday life during the French Revolution.
