About this title

Synopsis

A New General Biographical Dictionary, Projected And Partly Arranged By H.J. Rose by Hugh James Rose. This mid-19th-century biographical reference is compiled in alphabetical order and presented as concise life sketches of a wide array of historical figures. Part 1 (entries starting with BAH– BAL–) and related sections cover individuals from Europe, the Middle East, South Asia, and the broader Mediterranean world, spanning antiquity to the 18th–early 19th centuries. Entries typically list a brief life span, nationality, main occupation or role, notable works or achievements, and, when available, key offices or events. The work frequently cites primary reference sources (such as Biographie Universelle, Suppl�ment, Mazzuchelli, D’Herbelot) and occasionally includes anecdotal details. The excerpted material demonstrates a bibliographic or source-driven editorial ethos, with emphasis on scholars, theologians, physicians, mathematicians, military leaders, diplomats, architects, and artists. Overall, the dictionary functions as areference resource for historical research and cross-referencing across eras and cultures, rather than a narrative text.
