Presenting and Translating Pharmaceutical Terms into Multiple Languages: A Case of an Early 20th Century Glossary
(National Aviation University, 2024-05) Kikvidze, Zaal; Tsikhishvili, Nino
In the present paper, we discuss how terms for various plants and medicines are represented in Materials for a Glossary of Foreign Pharmaceuticals of the Caucasus and Central Asia. Compiled by Ėduard Šteber, the book was published in 1902. The glossary consists of two lexicographic parts, the former being a collection of entries arranged in alphabetical order, each of them consisting of Latin terms for plants and medicines accompanied with equivalents from various languages and varieties of the Caucasus and Central Asia, whereas the latter is an alphabetically arranged list of foreign terms for plants and medicines accompanied with respective Latin names. Šteber provides terms and their translations in thirty-six languages and varieties of the Caucasus and Central Asia.
