Daniel Sander: Wörterbuch der deutschen Sprache


Daniel Sanders’ (1819-1897) Wörterbuch der Deutschen Sprache (1860-1865) grew out of the critical reaction to the Grimms’ dictionary. Sanders wanted to compile a dictionary which would be more practical and oriented towards contemporary usage. It was to contain only an overview of semantic evidence, chronologically ordered.
In his introduction Werner Betz uses examples of vocabulary, definitions, citations etc and etymology to illustrate the differences and deficiencies compared to the Grimms’ dictionary which have led to Sanders’ work being largely neglected. However, he also stresses Sanders’ achievements. Edward Schröder emphatically praised the work in the Allgemeine Deutsche Biographie: “The linguistic usage of the 18th and 19th centuries is illustrated with a wealth of citations which ensure the work’s lasting value.”
