Sažetak
This paper researches the encyclopaedic magazine as a separate type of periodical publications, its relation to similar, e.g. popular-science magazines and especially its relation to encyclopaedic works. An analysis is made of four historical magazines that have in their titles or subtitles the adjective encyclopaedic: Journal encyclopédique, Giornale enciclopedico, Magasin encyclopédique, and Isis, eine encyclopädische Zeitschrift., as well as an analysis of encyclopaedic principles characteristic of encyclopaedic magazines: comprehensiveness, up-to-dateness, consolidarity and the level of organization. Qualities of encyclopaedic magazines are researched in detail using an encyclopaedic analysis of two Croatian examples: Znanje i radost, and Drvo znanja. The research shows that the encyclopaedic magazine is a periodical publication that comprehensively deals with all areas of human knowledge, interests and activities, publishing articles that deepen the notions of known ideas, but also inform their reader about the latest achievements and notions. Basic differences with regard to popular-science magazines are comprehensiveness and choice of themes, methodical presentation and being more oriented towards tertiary information. With a supplement of indexes that can be printed or electronic, cross-referenced and available on-line, encyclopaedic magazines are becoming a form of referential literature as well as a type of encyclopaedic work.
