Deutschsprachige Lexikographie in den böhmischen Ländern und der Sprachpurismus. Sommers und Demuths Wörterbücher vor dem Hintergrund der Verdeutschungspraxis

This study focuses on two German dictionaries published in the Bohemian Lands during the 19th century, whose titles show their relatedness to language purism. In the first part of the study, both dictionaries are presented and compared based on various criteria such as their authors’ motivation for publishing them and the presence of any aspects of Germanisation processes. The second part contains an analysis of two parts of the dictionaries; the aim is to examine the dictionary entries and identify the authors’ personal stance on language purism.
