  <abstract>"A classical dictionary" by John Lemprière is a reference work first published in 1788. This comprehensive dictionary catalogs proper names from ancient Greek and Roman sources, blending mythology, history, and anecdote into an engaging guide to classical antiquity. For nearly two centuries, it served poets, teachers, and writers—John Keats reportedly knew it by heart. More than a dry reference, Lemprière's vivid storytelling brought ancient myths to life, making classical knowledge accessible and entertaining for generations of readers seeking to understand the ancient world.
