Dictionaries and encyclopaedias in the 18th Century cultural context
Abstract
To the modern World, the 18th century represents an era of important economic and political changes and a great impulse to language, imaginery and behavioural studies. Knowledge gets enhanced through the diffusion of a variety of themes linked to reason, progress, happiness, criticism and truth, and different social groups to reach. To this aim it will be necessary to have books, dictionaries and encyclopaedias and the sponsorship of academies and scientific societies.Downloads
