Inhaltsangabe

This volume addresses the historical neglect of women's contributions to language learning and teaching. While the historiography of language education has often focused on male-dominated frameworks, the case studies in this book highlight female pioneers in language education from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century.

His research interests are mainly focused on the history of lexicography, translation and history, and Anglo-Italian linguistic and cultural relations. Iamartino's recent work on the history of language learning and teaching includes essays on R. John Andree's 1725 Vocabulary in six languages, and on Giuseppe Baretti and Moses Santagnello as master of languages and compilers of learning and teaching materials in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Britain.

Rachel Mairs is Professor of Classics and Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Reading, United Kingdom. She works on ancient and nineteenth-to-early-twentieth-century multilingualism in the Middle East, with a particular interest in interpreters.
