ARTFL Encyclopédie Reader(圖1)-速報App

The ARTFL Encyclopédie Reader app is a text search and retrieval interface that interacts with a fulltext-searchable version of the Encyclopédie of Diderot and d'Alembert running remotely on the ARTFL Project's servers at the University of Chicago. Users can do simple word or bibliographic searches and, from search results, link to larger text sections.

The "Encyclopédie ou Dictionnaire raisonné des sciences, des arts et des métiers, par une Société de Gens de lettres" was published under the direction of Diderot and d'Alembert, with 17 volumes of text and 11 volumes of plates between 1751 and 1772. Containing 74,000 articles written by more than 130 contributors, the Encyclopédie was a massive reference work for the arts and sciences, as well as a machine de guerre which served to propagate the ideas of the French Enlightenment. The impact of the Encyclopédie was enormous. Through its attempt to classify learning and to open all domains of human activity to its readers, the Encyclopédie gave expression to many of the most important intellectual and social developments of its time.

To search or retrieve texts, touch the three line icon on the left side of the Action Bar. A search form drawer will toggle on the left side of the screen. To search for occurrences of a word in the database, fill in the "Search terms" field. Search terms are not accent sensitive: for example, entering "eclat" will return all instances of "éclat". Note also that wildcard characters will expand search terms. For example, "amour.*" will retrieve instances of "amour," "amoureux," "amoureusement," etc.
