El léxico del LazarilloKeywords: lazarillo, glossary, register, lexicon, semantic fields, critical edition. Abstract: the following is an exhaustive glossary of all the words in lazarillo registered as they appear in the text. it has been prepared in a different way from the concordances and it will soon be on line. the glossary is a useful tool to study statistical data (figures and percentages), grammar categories, most frequently used terms, dominant semantic fields, stylistic features, syntagms, term distribution, and unique terms of a given treatise, etc. the conclusion is that the novel is a very rich work from a lexical viewpoint (there are many words which are mentioned only once and there is a low rate of repeated terms). this type of survey is fundamental for studies on language and style, and for the production of a critical edition, as it provides the author's usus scribendi which can be used to assess doubtful or equal variants.
