Description

In 16 (cm 11 x 18), pp. XIX + (1) + 989 + (3 bianche) + XXXVI + (4). Abrasioni ai piatti. Legatura in mezza pelle coeva con danno nella parte superiore del dorso. Edizione originale di questo dizionario francese-swahili con, in appendice, "Essai de catalogue des plantes de Zanzibar, Pemba, Mombassa, Amou et de la Grande Terre". "Charles Sacleux (1856-1943) was a French missionary of the Holy Ghost Fathers (GF), who worked in Zanzibar and Bagamoyo (1879-98). He devoted much of his time to Swahili language study and became renowned as a lexicographer. Frankl notes that 'Sacleux was fortunate to have studied Swahili before it was influenced by standardization and, later by English language patterns' (Frankl, 2004). Sacleux first produced his 'Dictionnaire francais-swahili' in 1891; the final edition was published in 1939 and can be considered as the definitive Swahili lexicon" (Chesworth, "Mixed Messages: Using the Bible and Quran in Swahili Tracts", 2022, p. 86).
