dc.description.abstractThis article discusses volume 1 of Wiegand's Wörterbuchforschung, which contains asection on the structure of the research field of lexicography, and a section on research on dictionaryuse. Wiegand firstly discusses different aspects of language lexicography and dictionaryresearch to determine whether this type of research constitutes a scientific discipline. He concludesthat it is a scientific research field on its way to become a scientific discipline. In the second section,Wiegand puts forward a theoretical framework for research on dictionary use, based on actiontheory, and a detailed methodology which includes empirical research. Such a theoretical andmethodological foundation, which also takes into account the systematic research on dictionarystructure, can be informative to lexicographers and enable them to plan the microstructures offuture dictionaries in a more systematic way. This might also lead to a more scientific concept ofuser-friendliness in dictionaries.
