| | 10 | Author: | | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Studies in Bibliography, Volume 10 (1957)  | | | | Published: | 1997 | | | | Subjects: | | Studies in Bibliography | | | | Description: | A CHECK list of the previous year's bibliographical scholarship will hereafter become a regular department in Studies in Bibliography. The present list is experimental: overlooked items will be cumulated in the 1950 compilation. The editor would appreciate copies of off-prints or collected publications containing material for listing, although reviews cannot be undertaken. Interested persons are invited to send references to books or articles which should appear here. This annual listing does not propose to treat the large number of enumerative catalogues which acquaint scholars with secondary publications in their field or assist libraries in the performance of their duties. Instead, the single attempt is made to bring together a selective account of primary investigations dealing with printing and publishing history, and bibliographical treatment of authors and their books, together with such critical or textual studies as are based on
bibliographical evidence or the interpretation of basic documents. The claims of history have not been entirely excluded under these conditions; but in general the emphasis in Part II is placed on English and American literature. In Part I some few works on manuscripts are noted, but no attempt has been made to collect this material comprehensively. The compilers gratefully acknowledge a number of items suggested by Mr. Rollo Silver and Mr. John Wyllie. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
| 20 | Author: | | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Studies in Bibliography, Volume 20 (1967) | | | | Published: | 1997 | | | | Subjects: | | Studies in Bibliography | | | | Description: | It seems hard to believe that twenty years have gone by since a group
of dedicated individuals banded together to form the the Bibliographical
Society of the University of Virginia. It is equally hard to believe, though
we have tangible and most impressive evidence to attest it, that this is the
twentieth volume of Studies in Bibliography. It is not unusual
to be misled by the passage of time, but in this case the illusion has been
fostered by the fact that Studies sprang into being full-grown
and fully armed, like Minerva from the head of Jupiter, whose thunderbolts
she wielded from time to time. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
