''The Encyclopedia of Fantasy'' is a 1997 reference work on fantasy fiction, edited by John Clute and John Grant. Other contributors include Mike Ashley, Neil Gaiman, Diana Wynne Jones, David Langford, Sam J. Lundwall, Michael Scott Rohan, Brian Stableford and Lisa Tuttle. The book was well-received on publication. In 1998, it received the Hugo Award,〔 World Fantasy Award,〔 and Locus Award.〔 The industry publication ''Library Journal'' described ''The Encyclopedia of Fantasy'' as "the first of its kind".〔 Since November 2012, the full text of ''The Encyclopedia of Fantasy'' is available on-line, as a companion to the on-line ''Encyclopedia of Science Fiction''. However, the editors of the ''Encyclopedia of Science Fiction'' have stated that there are no plans to update the ''Encyclopedia of Fantasy'', at least for the foreseeable future. ==Format and content== The ''Encyclopedia'' was published in a format that matches the 1993 second edition of ''The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction''. It is slightly smaller, containing 1,049 alphabetical pages, over 4,000 entries and approximately one million words, the bulk of which were written by Clute, Grant and Ashley. A later CD-ROM edition contains numerous revisions. The ''Encyclopedia'' uses a similar system of categorization to ''The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction'', but does not include an index of theme entries. A theme index was later included in the on-line addenda: see "External links" below. One of the major differences is that there are no entries related to publishing. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Encyclopedia of Fantasy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
