Petit Larousse illustrated is a encyclopedic Dictionnaire in language French E of the editions Larousse. It is published for the first time in 1905 by Claude Augé, succeeding the illustrated complete Dictionnaire (1889) of Claude Augé too. Its name pays homage to Pierre Larousse (1817 - 1875).

Since its birth the illustrated Petit Larousse only joins together in a Volume:

  1. a first part for the Common nouns and
  2. a second part for the Proper names
and in addition to these two parts:
  1. famous the pink pages of Petit Larousse listing expressions Latin S inter alia;
  2. various supplements gathered at the end of the volume.
  3. flags of all the countries of the world
The dictionary commemorated its hundredth birthday in 2005 while describing by the detail, in an article entitled the Dandelion, the sower and Petit Larousse , its genesis and its evolution with the passing of years. In 2006, it includes 90  000 articles, 200  000 definitions and 5  000 illustrations.

It appears more rigorous than the Petit Robert .

It is published in various formats, of which compact, large size and CD-ROM.
