Ephraim Chambers

Ephraim Chambers (c.1680 – 15 May 1740) was an English writer and encyclopaedist, who is primarily known for producing the ''Cyclopaedia, or a Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences''.〔Robert Lewis Collison reminds us that Chambers attained the distinction of "father of the modern encyclopaedia throughout the world." (''Encyclopaedias: Their History Throughout the Ages'', 2d ed., p.103, Hafner, New York & London, 1966.) cited in (University of Wisconsin )〕
==Biography==
Chambers was born in Kendal, Westmorland, England. Little is known of his early life, other than that he was apprenticed to a globe maker, John Senex, in London from 1714 to 1721. It was here that he developed the plan of the ''Cyclopaedia, or an Universal Dictionary of Arts and Sciences''. After beginning the ''Cyclopaedia'', he left Senex's service and devoted himself entirely to the encyclopedia project. He also took lodging in Gray's Inn, where he remained for the rest of his life.〔Espinasse 2004.〕 Chambers died in Islington and was buried in the cloisters of Westminster Abbey.〔Espinasse 2004.〕
