Summary/Abstract: The aim of the overview study is to describe, define and analyze Russian lexicographic works in academia, which from the beginning of the 18th century to the end systematically and non-systematically focused on summarizing and fixing neological forms in Russian (neosemantisms and lexical neologisms). We consider the given period to be pro¬toneographic and protoneological, up to the complex refinement of separate neological and neographic issues. As part of the description and summarization of authoritative neographic works, we focus on strictly oriented dictionaries of neologisms (own dictionaries of neologisms), dictionaries of neologisms implemented in bilingual translation and inter¬pretation dictionaries, in some cases also in trilingual ones. We consider the mentioned neographic works to be relevant for the further genesis of Russian neographic academic production. Each of the lexicographic and neographic primary and secondary sources presented and analyzed by us was processed de visu.
