Zu einem deutsch-tschechischen Hand- und Lehrbuch (1793) : eine Fallstudie zur Zweisprachigkeit im Bereich der Fachsprachen
On a German-Czech handbook and textbook (1793) : a study of bilingualism in specialist language (1793)
- The article presents the first German-Czech handbook and textbook about forestry (written by Wenzel Elias Lenhardt). The text is of particular interest due to the language situation and the practical use of both German and Czech in the Bohemian Crown Lands during the 18th century. The paper also discusses several aspects of the handbook and textbook - including the author and the addressee from a pragmalinguistic perspective - and summarizes the results of an analysis of its textual characteristics, writing style, syntax and lexis.
