	British Encyclopaedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		The British Encyclopaedia, or Dictionary of Arts and Sciences was published in 1809 in six 8vo volumes and around 150 plates.
		This method of publishing was common in the 18th and early 19th century and was known as a conger.
		For an interesting paper published by The Textbook Colloquium in 1998, comparing the content of The British Encyclopaedia with Gregory's Dictionary of Arts and Sciences, published in 1808, but also edited by Jeremiah Joyce, see [1] This shows that 50% of the two texts were identical.

		Profusely illustrated with photographs and with reproductions of marks, it will be indispensable for collectors, dealers, museum officials and all those interested in British ceramics and their identification and dating.
		He is the director of a leading British firm of specialist dealers in ceramics, supplying firms and museums all over the world, and is also a consultant to numerous museums and private collections.

	Sphæra issue no. 6: article 11
		Some small modifications have been added during the copying process: the young man in the original having his palm read, for example, is now reluctant to give his hand to the magician, indicating that the power of magic was contested by the 1720s.
		Descriptions are given with the frontispieces and in the first volume, where the illustration is the closest to Leclerc's engraving, royalty is again central, theology is represented, and the teaching of the arts and sciences is emphasized.
		The 'French Encyclopaedia', Diderot and d'Alembert's huge Encyclopédie ou dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers published in seventeen volumes of text and eleven volumes of plates between 1751 and 1772, did not use Leclerc's engraving, despite the fact that it was inspired by Chambers' Cyclopaedia.

	Encyclopedia - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
		Browne structured his encyclopaedia upon the time-honoured schemata of the Renaissance, the so-called 'scale of creation' which ascends a hierarchical ladder via the mineral, vegetable, animal, human, planetary and cosmological worlds.
		Encyclopaedias were published in Scotland, as a result of the Scottish Enlightenment, for education there was of a higher standard than in the rest of the United Kingdom.
		Encyclopedia is the dominant spelling used in the United States; an alternate spelling, encyclopaedia (sometimes rendered encyclopædia, with the æ ligature) is commonly used in British and Commonwealth English.

		Unfortunately, you won't be able to access the video clips* (copyright issues mean they're restricted to legitimate educational organisations within in the UK, and I guess from your posts that you're not based here), but there should be plenty more there to get your teeth into.

		Beneath most marks is an approximate date when this type of mark was introduced, by taking the next mark in the sequence, and its date of introduction, you can estimate the date of the item you are researching.
		Although this book offers the largest and most accurate collection of British ceramic marks available it cannot illustrate or describe the tens of thousands of variations of factory marks used over a 250 year period.
		In the mean time the New Handbook of British Pottery and Porcelain Marks, which is a greatly reduced version of Dr. Godden's book, provides new information on some marks and potters, but more importantly includes the listing of patterns and shapes registrations from 1842 to 1883.

	A tale of two encyclopaedias:
		, and The British Encyclopaedia or Dictionary of Arts and Sciences (1809) ascribed to William Nicholson and published by a huge conger whose principal organisers were Longmans.
		The circumstances of production of these two works are intriguing: while sources reveal that the texts were 'bitter rivals' and 'framed in opposition' to one another, they also reveal that neither Gregory nor Nicholson compiled the works given their names.
		From appealing to the gentleman-amateur of the eighteenth century, science becomes packaged and produced by a developing publishing industry that mediates emergent scientific professionalism and the growing number of new consumers.
