    Extractions: BIOGRAPHICAL DICTIONARIES Return to Slavic Biography Page Return to Table of Contents Return to Expanded Table of Contents W hat is a biographical dictionary? It is any reference book that contains predominantly biographical articles. Usually the articles are arranged alphabetically by the name of the figure discussed, but they can be arranged in any fashion. Some cover figures from only one historical period, other from only one profession, still others from one geographic region. Some have lengthy entries, other have entries that are just a few lines long. They are as diverse as human endeavor with one unifying feature - biographies as entries. A few guides to biographical dictionaries and other biographical resources have been published. They are described in the section on General Resources for All Countries within the biographical section of this course. B elow you can peruse annotations of important biographical dictionaries for all of the Slavic and East European countries. Please note that many sources that are included in the K.G.
