Útdráttur

After touching upon the growing up, educational career, political and other intellectual activites of Ásgeir Blöndal Magnússon, the article goes on showing him as a lexicographer with special interest in etymology, word formation and historical phonology. His longstanding and extensive research into the origins of the Icelandic vocabulary resulted in his monumental word, <i>Íslensk orðsifjabók</i> (1989) (Icelandic Etymological Dictionary). He also published a number of articles dealing with various phonological problems in the history of the Icelandic language.
