Vietnam’s Monography from a Comparison Perspective with Encyclopedia

  • Huy Bỉnh Nguyễn
Keywords: Monography, Refetence Point, Encyclopedia

Abstract

Monography, a genre of books which summarizes encyclopedic knowledge and comprehension of a single subject, affirms its presence in the Vietnamese history with quite a number of great works. Each work not only presents its compiler’s mind and talents but is also inclusive of common knowledge in those times. These values enable monographs to suggest a reference point and a lesson for the compilation of encyclopedias. The paper refers to the reference point between monography and encyclopedia in terms of nature, type, characteristics and compilation principles.
