Many brief biographies have been gathered and published in collective biographies, sometimes called biographical encyclopedias or biographical dictionaries. These works usually include only biographies of prominent or well-known German citizens. Other collective biographies feature biographies of specific groups of people, such as merchants or students of an academy. | Many brief biographies have been gathered and published in collective biographies, sometimes called biographical encyclopedias or biographical dictionaries.
