Book Synopsis


Trade Review
'[…] cette recherche, appuyée sur une parfaite connaissance de la littérature critique – voir l’abondante bibliographie très à jour – constitue enfin une très intéressante contribution aux nouvelles voies d’analyse de la lexicographie historique comparée.'
- Recherches sur Diderot et sur l’‘Encyclopédie’
'In his Conclusion, Loveland argues that the study of little-known encyclopedias adds to our understanding of the more famous ones. This fascinating account of one such example will be of value to readers interested in many issues of publishing and readership in the eighteenth century.'
- French Studies
