Description
The paper examined in detail one of the most important translational synergies in the European Renaissance. It explored the creative ways in which Thomas Urquhart in 1653 translated Rabelais's first two books (c.1532 and c.1534) with the help of an exceptional bilingual French-English dictionary: Randle Cotgrave's A Dictionarie of the French and English Tongues (1611).
