The final part of an epic dictionary of medieval Latin is to be published this week, bringing to a close a project initiated 100 years ago.

The Dictionary of Medieval Latin from British Sources has more than 58,000 entries and currently spans 15 volumes, the first of which came out in 1975.

The 16th and final volume is published by the British Academy on 11 December. Academy president Lord Stern called it "the most comprehensive study ever" of medieval Latin vocabulary.
