Grand Dictionnaire Encyclopédique Larousse

Following the work of Pierre Larousse on the Grand dictionnaire Universel, the Grand Dictionnaire Encyclopédique Larousse, a ten-volume dictionary, was published between 1982 and 1985 by Éditions Larousse. It is an encyclopedia and a dictionary merged in a single alphabetical listing. Beneath the standard dictionary (meanings, usages) entry comes the encyclopedic section.
