description

This article focuses on Paweł Sobolewski’s manuscript dictionary, Słownik angielsko- polski… (1840), which his biographers allege was lost during shipment from America to Europe. However, part of the manuscript embracing the alphabet range B‒E is held at the archive of the Polish Library in Paris, thus allowing the author to discuss facts and myths concerning the dictionary, and make an attempt at its assessment. Much attention is paid in the paper to Sobolewski’s biography, which may be illustrated and partly verified with the extant correspondence.
