Beiträge des Internationalen Symposiums aus Anlass des 90-Jährigen Bestandes der Wörterbuchkanzlei der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften Wien, 25.-27. September 2005
This publication is the result of the International Symposium "Deutsche Wortforschung als Kulturgeschichte" (German Word Research as Cultural History), which was convened in Vienna in 2003 on the occasion of the 90-year anniversary of the "Wörterbuchkanzlei" (Dictionary Office) and the "Wörterbuch der bairischen Mundarten in Österreich" (Dictionary of Bavarian Dialects in Austria). Four main topics, all taking cultural-historical aspects into account, are dealt with in twenty-four papers: two introductory contributions deal with the Bavarian dialect, its linguistic structure and the Bavarian dialect dictionary "Wörterbuch der bairischen Mundarten in Österreich".
