Once considered the largest and most extensive source of biographies in the English language The Universal Dictionary of Biography and Mythology contains information on nearly every historical figure notable name and important subject of mythology from throughout the world prior to the 20th century. Spanning all fields of human effort-from literature and the arts to philosophy and science-and touching on topics from multiple areas of mythological study including Norse Greek and Roman this extraordinary reference guide continues to be one of the most thorough and accurate collections of biographical data ever created. Combining mythological and biographical entries into a single comprehensive list and incorporating a unique system of indicating pronunciation and orthography The Universal Dictionary of Biography and Mythology offers readers an unparalleled record of historically significant identities from the obscure and forgotten newsmakers of yesteryear to the highly celebrated shapers of history that remain influential today.
