ΛΟΓΕΙΟΝ Online

ΛΟΓΕΙΟΝ

• Logeion (literally, a place for words; in particular, a speaker's platform, or an archive) was developed after the example of dvlf.uchicago.edu, to provide simultaneous lookup of entries in the many reference works that make up the Perseus Classical collection. To improve the chronological range for which the dictionaries are useful, we have added DuCange (see below), and to enhance this site as both a research and a pedagogical tool, we add information based on corpus data in the right side bar, as well as references to chapters in standard textbooks. More such 'widgets' will be added over time, along with, we hope, still more dictionaries.
  
• The Logeion interface only allows for consulting dictionaries the way dictionaries were originally conceived: Type in the headword (or lemma) for the entry (transliterated Greek is an option) and the word wheel will spin to what we hope will be the right destination. Enter a minimum of three characters, and the system will attempt to suggest entries in the neighborhood.
  
• For full-text searches (where in LSJ do we find reference to Xenophon's Anabasis, where is λόγος used in any entry, not just in the entry for λόγος), use the links in the list of sources below. Full-text search is only possible for the reference works that are fully in the public domain. Below, the home page will be specified for projects that have a presence online, which may include many further options for searching.
  
• This site has been developed by Josh Goldenberg and Matt Shanahan in the summer of 2011. In addition, many thanks to ARTFL, as always, and in particular to Richard Whaling and to the DVLF crew for initial consultation. We hope you will find Logeion useful!

• Update January 2012: We have now added a Latin-Dutch dictionary to the collection: The Woordenboek Latijn/Nederlands. One notable feature of this dictionary, for those who do not speak Dutch, is that a lot of attention has been paid to ensure accuracy of vowel length for the lexical entries. For further information see below.
