Sir Israel Gollancz Prize (1935) - Biografía breve
- Sir William Alexander Craigie (13 August 1867 – 2 September 1957) was a philologist and a lexicographer.
A graduate of the University of St Andrews, he was the third editor of the Oxford English Dictionary and co-editor (with C. T. Onions) of the 1933 supplement. From 1916 to 1925 he was also Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon in the University of Oxford.
He lectured on lexicography at the University of Chicago while working on the Dictionary of American English and the Dictionary of the Older Scottish Tongue, a project he pioneered. Many twentieth-century American lexicographers studied under Craigie as a part of his lectureship, including Clarence Barnhart, Jess Stein, Woodford A. Heflin, Robert Ramsey, Louise Pound, and Allen Walker Read. [from Wikipedia

A Dictionary of the older Scottish tongue from the… por William A. Craigie
Part 45 and vols. 9, 10, and 11.
A short book written in 1913, but still interesting. Subjects included the reasons why the Icelanders composed so many sagas, the role of Icelandic poets in the courts of the Atlantic seaboard and the difference between the historical sagas and the fictional sagas with their mythological and romantic themes.
