Descripción
I describe how the principles of lexicography have been applied in
limited ways in astronomy and look at the revision work under way for
the third edition of the Oxford English Dictionary, which, when
completed, will contain the widest and most detailed coverage of the
astronomical lexicon in the English language. Finally, I argue the need
for a dedicated historical dictionary of astronomy based rigorously on a
corpus of quotations from sources published in English from the
beginnings of written English to the present day.
