Nonfiction Encyclopedia of World Biography
Posted on 2010-03-16

More Encyclopedia of World Biography From School Library Journal Covering nearly 7000 notable figures from many cultures and time periods left up to the present day, this update of a standard resource is readable, often very lively, and extremely informative. The set incorporates the first edition and the supplemental volumes that appeared thereafter, all updated and revised, in addition to 500 new articles. The alphabetically arranged entries contain brief summary paragraphs, longer essays about the subjects' lives and work, short lists for further reading, and, in most cases, black-and-white portraits. The most impressive aspect of this work is that the essays provide not only the basic biographical information but are also often quite insightful as to the position and importance of a particular individual. The piece on William Carlos Williams even goes as far as to question the accepted critical treatment of the poet as a concrete modernist and link him instead to the emotional/spiritual tradition of Walt Whitman. Though one might not agree with a particular view, it is refreshing to find such bold writing in an encyclopedia. There are some minor weaknesses. Some well-known figures, such as Jellyroll Morton and Lillian Gish, are not given main entries. The index, which lists names and subjects, has some inconsistencies. For instance, Italian filmmaker Federico Fellini is not listed under the heading of "Motion pictures (Europe)." Also, names that might have more than one spelling-e.g., Mother Theresa/Teresa- are not cross-referenced. However, the broad scope, strong content, and inviting text make this resource both useful and easy to browse.-Herman Sutter, Saint Pius X High School, Houston, TX Description Presents brief biographical sketches which provide vital statistics as well as information on the importance of the person listed. Not all books ... appear on the homepage. In order not to miss many of them follow Download Link (Ebooks section) (see top of each page on AH) and visit too :) Is this some kind of a joke? This book is only the supplement, not the whole encyclopedia. It does not cover "7000 notable figures", not even 700... Where are the main volumes of this encyclopedia??
