Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Format for each volume is approximately 5.5 inches by 7. 75 inches. Five volume set. Covers have some wear and soiling. Unpaginated. Volume I: A - CONS; Volume II: CONS - HOLY; Volume III: HOLY - PART; Volume IV: PART - THEO; and Volume V: THEO - ZYM. This is a wonderful example of the state of knowledge, the state of information, the state of education, and the standards of compendiums at the start of the Twentieth Century and the era just prior to the start of the First World War. An encyclopedia (American English) or encyclopædia (British English) is a reference work or compendium providing summaries of knowledge either general or special to a particular field or discipline. Encyclopedias are divided into articles or entries that are arranged alphabetically by article name or by thematic categories, or else are hyperlinked and searchable. Encyclopedia entries are longer and more detailed than those in most dictionaries. Generally speaking, encyclopedia articles focus on factual information concerning the subject named in the article's title; this is unlike dictionary entries, which focus on linguistic information about words, such as their etymology, meaning, pronunciation, use, and grammatical forms. Encyclopedias have existed for around 2,000 years and have evolved considerably during that time as regards language (written in a major international or a vernacular language), size (few or many volumes), intent (presentation of a global or a limited range of knowledge), cultural perspective (authoritative, ideological, didactic, utilitarian), authorship (qualifications, style), readership (education level, background, interests, capabilities), and the technologies available for their production and distribution (hand-written manuscripts, small or large print runs, Internet). As a valued source of reliable information compiled by experts, printed versions found a prominent place in libraries, schools and other educational institutions. The appearance of digital and open-source versions in the 21st century, such as Wikipedia, has vastly expanded the accessibility, authorship, readership, and variety of encyclopedia entries. Presumed a later printing (due to copyright notice).…
