The Universal Hungarian Encyclopaedia (Hungarian "Egyetemes magyar encyclopaedia") is a 13-volume Hungarian lexicon published in the second half of the 19th century.

History

The lexicon, made in 13 large-format (20x27 cm) volumes, was published between 1859 and 1876 in Pest (and then in Budapest after the unification) under the care of the Szent István Society. The editors of the work were János Török (1807–1874), János Pollák (1824–1884), Ferenc Laubhaimer (1833–1888). The interesting thing about the series is that it appeared not with a page, but with column numbering (the text mirror has 2 columns on 1 page), so the page number is equal to half of the column numbers. It is close to 9,300 columns, or about 4,600 to 4,700 pages.

The lexicon does not have a reprint edition, and can be viewed electronically by registration with a subscription on the Arcanum website; or without registration in the - XIII. with the exception of Volume - on the website of the Münchener Digitalisierungs Zentrum Digitale Bibliothek (see individual volumes in the list below).
