Sinossi
Excerpt from Chambers's Encyclopaedia, Vol. 1: A Dictionary of Universal Knowledge for the People
T is now considerably more than a hundred years since Epmum Cnamas gave to the world his Cyclopwdia, or Universal Dictionary of Knowledge - the prototype, as it proved to be, of a number of similar works in Britain as well as in other countries, which must have contributed in no small measure to increase the sum of general intelligence. In nearly all these works there has been a ten dency to depart from the plan of their celebrated original, as concerns some of the great. Departments of science, literature, and history; these being usually presented, not under a variety of specific heads, as they commonly occur to our minds when information is required, but aggregated in large and formal treatises, such as would in themselves form books of considerable bulk. By such a course it is manifest that the serviceableness of an Encyclopwdia as a dictionary for reference is greatly impaired, whatever may be the advantages which on other points are gained.
