The Ekeloef Research Dictionary for English J S Ling

The Ekelöf Research Dictionary for English is a reference tool for Swedish literature researchers and translators interested in the collected works of the eminent Swedish poet and essayist Gunnar Ekelöf. Inspired by James Strong's concordance of the Bible, this book exhaustively describes every word appearing in the fourteen books of poetry the author published during his lifetime, as well as a few other crucial selections. It provides English translations of every word, whether from Swedish, Latin, French, or Greek, among other languages, and it indexes every occurrence of every word in each of the poetic works. With just under 10,000 entries, this research dictionary is an essential tool for Ekelöf scholars and laypeople looking to investigate and understand the author's work in greater detail.
