'''Ephraim Chambers''' (oko [[1680.]], [[Kendal]] – [[15. svibnja]] [[1740.]], [[London Borough of Islington| Islington]]) je bio engleski pisac i [[enciklopedist]]. Najpoznatiji je po djelu [[Cyclopaedia|Cyclopaediji]], Univerzalnom rječniku umjetnosti i znanosti.<ref>Robert Lewis Collison reminds us that Chambers attained the distinction of "father of the modern encyclopaedia throughout the world." (''Encyclopaedias: Their History Throughout the Ages'', 2d ed., p.103, Hafner, New York & London, 1966.) cited in [http://digicoll.library.wisc.edu/HistSciTech/subcollections/CyclopaediaAbout.shtml University of Wisconsin]</ref><br />

== Životopis ==<br />
Chambers se rodio u [[Kendal|Kendalu]], u [[Westmorland|Westmorelandu]] u Engleskoj. Pohađao je školu [[Heversham Grammar School|Heversham Grammar]]. Malo se zna o njegovoj mladosti osim da je bio šegrtom kod izrađivača [[globus|globusa]] [[John Senex|Johna Senexa]] u Londonu od 1714. do 1721. godine. Ondje je razvio zamisao o [[Cyclopaedia|Cyclopaediji]], univerzalnom rječniku umjetnosti i znanosti. Nakon što je započeo Cyclopaediju, napustio je Senexa i u potpunosti se posvetio svom enciklopedijskom projektu. Uskoro se smjestio u jednom od londonskih [[Inns of Court|innova]], [[Gray's Inn|Grayevom innu]], gdje je ostao do kraja života.<ref>Espinasse 2004.</ref><br />
