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.
