Authority Cited: Du Cange
Author name and dates: Charles Du Fresne Du Cange (1610-1688)
BKG Bio-tweet: French philologist, historian; glossary of Medieval Latin; supports SJ etym., definition of alcaid
Categories (list of works cited – preliminary) [BKG Note: six Du Cange cites in 1755 Dict. vol. 1, two Du Cange cites in 1755 Dict. vol. 2. No additional Du Cange cites were identified as added in the 1773 Dict. In Johnson the Philologist, Kansai University of Foreign Studies Publication, Japan, 1988, Daisuke Nagashima provides evidence that SJ consulted directly the text below rather than using a secondary source for the headword amice (pp. 194-195). The Du Cange text quoted by Nagashima from a 1733 edition includes the quotation from Bruno, indicating that SJ may not have consulted the original Bruno text.]
