Schaff, Philip. The new Schaff-Herzog encyclopedia of religious knowledge, embracing biblical, historical, doctrinal and practical theology and biblical, theological and ecclesiastical biography; based on the 3d ed. of the Real-encyklopädie founded by J. J. Herzog and edited by Albert Hauck. S. M. Jackson, editor-in-chief. N. Y. Funk. [c1908-12.] 12 v. and index. 28cm. $60. 203

This encyclopedia is one of the most important reference books on its subject in English, superseding the older work by M'Clintock and Strong, except for an occasional special article. Based upon the 3d ed. of the Herzog-Hauck-Real-encyklopädie, and SO Protestant in tone, but not biased. Is not a mere translation of the German work, however, as much of the material has been condensed, fresh material added and the bibliographies extended and improved. Is not limited to the Christian religion but includes articles on other religions and relig ious leaders. Covers the whole field of biblical, histcrical and contemporary theology, church history

and religious biography, including separate articles on all sects, denominations and churches, organizations and societies, missions, doctrines, controversies, etc. Biographical notices include those of men still living. The strongest feature of the work is the bibliographical feature which is in three forms -(1) an excellent general bibliographical survey, with critical comment, in the preface (xii-xxiv), (2) the bibliographical appendix at the beginning of each volume which gives recent literature, and (3) the fine bibliographies appended to each article.

The most extended modern work of reference in the field of theology is the great French series now in course of publication under the general title Encyclopédie des sciences religieuses, composed of the following separate works:

Dictionnaire d'archéologie chrétienne, by Cabrol; Dictionnaire d'histoire et de géographie ecclésiastiques, by Baudrillart; Dictionnaire de théologie catholique, by Vacant and Mangenot; Dictionnaire de la Bible, by Vigouroux, and Dictionnaire du droit canonique, (this last in preparation but not yet published). Parts of this series contain the finest material on the subject published in any language and the work as a whole represents the highest level of French Catholic scholarship. The price of the sets puts them beyond the reach of the small or medium-sized library and the work is too special to be of much use except in a theological library, a large general reference library or a library which specializes in mediaeval and ecclesiastical history and literature. For historical subjects the two dictionaries by Cabrol and Baudrillart are the most useful of the series. For fuller description see below and also p. 57, 63.

Baudrillart, Alfred. Dictionnaire d'histoire et de géographie ecclésiastiques, par Alfred Baudrillart, Albert Vogt et Urbain Rouziès. Paris, Letouzey, 1912. v. 1-3 (fasc. 1-12). illus. maps. 28cm. 5 fr. per fasc. 203

fasc. 1-12, A-Angleterre.

Publication in fascicles was begun in 1908; v.

2 was completed in 1914, and one fascicle of v. 3 has been issued also, completing more than half of the letter A. Scope of work covers all subjects in history of the Roman Catholic church, and other churches as they affect the Roman church, from the beginning of Christianity to the present time.
