Modern Drama Studies: An Annual Bibliography

Modem Drama Studies: An Annual Bibliography CHARLESA.CARPENTER The present annual bibliography follows the basic principles and limitations described in the first installment ofMarch 1974. The main objective is to record current scholarship, criticism, and commentary that may prove valuable to students of modem dramatic literature. The bibliography embraces all the expected areas and topics of modem world drama, including playwrights who lived past 1900 (plus Buchner and Becque) and influential men and women of the theatre otherthan performers. This year's list covers 1980 and further 1979 and 1978 items. It is divided as follows: A General (including reference works) B American C British and Irish D Commonwealth and Asian E Hispanic (including Portuguese) F French G Italian H Germanic (including Austrian, Swiss, and Dutch) J Scandinavian K Eastern European (Russian, Polish, Czech, Hungarian, and Balkan) Section A is restricted to material that would not fit in the better-defined categories. Once again I am indebted to Professor 1. Norman Wilkinson of Maine for submitting several Chinese drarna/theatre titles, and to the library staffs of Harvard, Cornell, and SUNY-Binghamton. Abbreviations used in the checklist, besides those for the journals listed below, include the first three letters of months and seasons (Jan, Sum, etc.), Lon, NY, Bas, and Dub for the cities, Amer, Eng, Lit, Long, Bibl, Assn, and Lib for the obvious, and UP to indicate a university press. Further abbrevia- An Annual Bibliography 147 tions - most of them self-evident - are Bul for Bulletin, J for Journal, Mag for Magazine, Pr for Press, Q for Quarterly, Rev for Review, and St for Studies.
