But a new editor, Philip Gove, brought in a new, somewhat radical vision when he took over as editor in 1950: that dictionaries should not dictate but rather reflect language. His team cast a wide net into the sea of colloquy and took seriously what it dragged in. The result was a fiasco. The Third Edition, published in 1961, was pilloried for its informality, especially for its inclusion of ain’t. The New York Times editorial board called the edition “disastrous” because it reinforced “the notion that good English is whatever is popular,” and Wilson Follett, writing in The Atlantic, deemed it “a very great calamity.” So dramatic was the blowback that David Foster Wallace, in his 2001 Harper’s Magazine essay “Tense Present,” referred to it as “the Fort Sumter of the contemporary usage wars.” It is quaint to think back to a time when so many people cared about a dictionary. But for all the pearl-clutching, the Third Edition reset the role of the American dictionary: With its publication, a new era of the reference book began.
