- Claudius Hollyband (born Claude de Sainliens; Latin: Claudius a Sancto Vinculo) was a 16th-century French-English linguist, philologist, phonologist, lexicographer and instructor of English, French, Italian and Latin. He was the author of many books and treatises regarding language, including one of the earliest French-English dictionaries, A Dictionarie French and English, published in London in 1593.
A Huguenot refugee from Moulins where he was born in 1534, France, Hollyband arrived in London, England in about 1564 and died in this city in 1594

Rezensionen
The Elizabethan home von Claudius Hollyband
This is the text of two 16th century "how to learn French" manuals, in the form of dialogues, rather like the old Alliance Française lessons we used to do. The one about the lady getting dressed in the morning is a riot. Since their objective is teaching a foreign language, the dialogues are a bit artificial, but you can glean a great deal of information about daily life in the late 16th century from them.
