Wiktionary:Abbreviated Authorities in Webster

The 1913 Webster Unabridged Dictionary is often used as a source for definitions, as its copyright has expired so it is in the public domain. Numerous abbreviations of literary works and authors appear in the source; this page catalogs them for reference. For grammatical abbreviations, see Wiktionary:Abbreviations in Webster.
