The article discusses hitherto unidentified contributions of Roman Jakobson (1896–1982) to Ottův slovník naučný nové doby ('Otto Encyclopaedia of the New Age'), a prestigious encyclopaedia published in Prague between 1930–1943. To complement the five entries by the great linguist for the Encyclopaedia that are listed in the existing bibliographies of his work (Phoneme, Phonology, Linguistics, Metrics, and Mathesius, Vilém), the article identifies the following entries as also written by Jakobson: Morpheme, Prague Linguistic Circle and Havránek, Bohuslav. Whereas the authorship of the latter can only be considered highly probable, the remaining two are identified as indisputable products of Roman Jakobson. The article contains an English translation of, and a brief commentary on, all the hitherto unidentified entries.

This article examines contributions by individual members of the Prague Linguistic Circle to the Ottův slovník naučný nové doby (Otto’s Encyclopedia of the New Era), published in 1930–1943. The encyclopedia was a very prestigious project at the time, so the participation of as many as 36 members of the Prague Linguistic Circle should not be considered too surprising. Offering a survey of the individual contributions with regard to whether they later became part of the contributors’ published bibliographies, this article further demonstrates that at least a part of the entries in the encyclopedia by the members of the Circle, including some of the most prominent (Jakobson, Wellek, Mukařovský and others), has thus far gone unnoticed. It also briefly assesses the contributions to the encyclopedia by several leading cultural figures of the time.
