Abstract

In order to introduce the programme and the aim of the Symposium dealing with the theory and practice of compiling Croatian unilingual dictionaries, the author gives an account of the Croatian lexicographers' activities during the last ten years and the results of their research presented in their papers read at the conferences and symposia on lexicography and lexicology held during that period. At the first four symposia (organized in 1980, 1983, 1986 and 1989) Croatian lexicographers discussed some general problems of lexicography not linked with the topic of these symposia (compiling Croatian unilingual dictionaries). It was not before the fifth symposium, organized on April 4th, 1992 as a round table conference whose main theme was Open Questions in Compiling Croatian Monolingual Dictionaries, that some fundamental questions and basic problems were seriously discussed and some solutions offered. Furthermore, in the paper the main results and several suggestions how to compile such dictionaries are presented in order to show that the questions raised at that conference will be further discussed at this symposium to help in compiling new, better and more modern unilingual dictionaries of the Croatian language.
