To this day, the Kleine Pauly remains the reference work of choice for anyone seeking precise and reliable information about the ancient world. It is based on the 84-volume Realencyclopädie of classical antiquity science, edited by Pauly and Wissowa, a monumental achievement in research. In five handy volumes, it makes this knowledge accessible to a wide audience. This allows for both quick initial information and deeper engagement with topics from the ancient world. The density of quotes and references in the Kleine Pauly is legendary, as is the wealth of knowledge spread across over 14,000 articles. It covers everything from prehistory to the afterlife of antiquity, from myths and legends to the Church Fathers. New: An additional booklet with all articles, from A for Aachen to Z for Zythos, enables quick and targeted access to all topics.
