A propos de cet article

ISBN-13: 9781584776802; ISBN-10: 1584776803. With a New Introduction by Bryan A. Garner Williams, Thomas Walter. A Compendious and Comprehensive Law Dictionary; Elucidating the Terms, and General Principles of Law and Equity. London: Gale and Fenner, 1816. Unpaginated [1022] pp. Reprinted 2006 by The Lawbook Exchange, Ltd. With a new introduction by Bryan A. Garner, President, Law Prose, Inc. and editor of Black's Law Dictionary. ISBN-13: 9781584776802; ISBN-10: 1584776803. Hardcover. New. $95. One of several English dictionaries published in the early nineteenth century, Williams's stands out for three reasons.

Apart from various editions of Termes de la Ley, huge folios, such as those by Jacob and Cunningham, seem to have been the order of the day. It wasn't until precisely a century after Williams - with the publication of James A. Ballentine's Law Dictionary - that short, small law dictionaries gained popularity. In some sense, Williams's work might be considered a predecessor of today's pocket law dictionaries. --Bryan A. Garner, From the Introduction to this Edition Thomas Walter Williams [1763-1833] was a barrister of the Inner Temple. He didn't have much success as a pleader, so he established himself, with considerable success, as a legal writer. In addition to his dictionary, he wrote manuals for justices of the peace, compiled abridgments and digests and edited an edition of William Sheppard's Precedent of Precedents.…
