Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biographical Dictionary of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, Vol. 1The first half volume of the Biographical Dictionary of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge is now offered to the Public.A Biographical Dictionary must be viewed both as a whole and in its parts. Viewed as a whole, it must not be compared with a selection of Biographies, such, for instance, as the Lives of Plutarch, whose object was to inculcate moral lessons rather than simply to tell the events of a man's life. Viewed in its parts, a Biographical Dictionary must not be compared with special Biography, which has always a particular object, and also a completeness unattainable in a work which professes to give, within reasonable limits, some account of all persons who have lived and have done anything for which they ought to be remembered. A Biographical Dictionary is consulted as a ready means of getting sufficient information for the time, and as indicating the sources of further information. Any attempt, then, to produce in any given instance a perfect Biography, would be inconsistent both with the object and the limits of such a work. It would also interfere with that unity in the mode of treating the subjects which should characterise a Biographical Dictionary, in which little more ought to be attempted than to give a plain statement of the main events of a person's life, in simple language, and, in the case of a writer, a brief criticism on his principal works.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Biographical Dictionary, Vol. 1: Of the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge Aggas, robert, commonly called Au gus, an English landscape painter who lived in London during the reigns of James I. And Charles I. Graham, in his English School, terms Aggas a good landscape painter, both in oil and in distemper, and skilful in architecture, in which he painted many scenes for the playhouse in Covent Garden, or rather the theatre in Dorset Gardens, which Walpole supposes to he meant. Aggas died in London, in 1679, aged about 60 he was probably descended from Radulph or Edward Aggas. Few of his works are extant the best is a landscape presented by him to the Painter stainers' Company, in whose hall it is still pieserved. (walpole, Anecdotes of Painting in England.) R. N. W.
