This book consists of a series of papers that look at three different aspects of the landscape as seen in dictionaries from across Europe. Multilingual diachronic case studies into lexicographical descriptions of flora, landscape features and colours concentrate on three supposedly simple words: daisies (Bellis perenis L.), hills and the colour red. The work is part of the ongoing LandLex initiative, originally developed as part of the COST ENeL - European Network for e-Lexicography - action. The group brings together researchers in lexicography and lexicology from across Europe and is dedicated to studying multilingual and diachronic issues in language. It aims to valorise the wealth of European language diversity as found in dictionaries by developing and testing new digital annotation tools and a historical morphological dictionary prototype. Funded by the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European Union

Recently, there has been increased appreciation of the fact that August Friedrich Pott (1802–1887) possessed valuable insights and articulated uncommon positions in Indo-European comparative linguistics, general linguistics, and linguistic ethnology. This introduction and accompanying bibliography and catalogue aim to provide additional access routes to Pott's career by chronicling his life, works, and library collection.
