In 1917, in Petrograd, Vladimír Szmurlo published another encyclopedia called Ariadne's Thread, with mere references as "A first try of an Encyclopedia of Esperantism; with a firm belief that out of that person ... a seed will grow a huge tree of the Universal Esperanto Encyclopedia." The first pages (1–88) were printed in Riga. Due to military circumstances, the next pages of the book appeared infrequently, only after the letter "E", and with contents very in short supply and content.

Famous quotes containing the word thread:
“Oh sure, everyone goes back to the earth at some point, but life itself is a thread that is never broken, never lost. Do you know why? Because each man makes a knot in the thread during his lifetime: it is the work he has done and that’s what gives life to life in the long stretch of time: the usefulness of man on this earth.”
—Jacques Roumain (1907–1945)
