Modern Drama Studies: An Annual Bibliography

Modem Drama Studies:An Annual Bibliography CHARLES A. CARPENTER The present annual bibliography follows the basic principles and limitations described in the first installment of March 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 other than performers. This year's list covers 1979 and further 1978 and 1977 items. The bibliography is more comprehensive than ever, largely because a State University of New York research fellowship and grant-in-aid enabled me to spend the summer working at Harvard, Yale, Cornell, Texas, and the Library of Congress on my International Bibliography ofModern Drama Scholarship and Criticism, 1966-1980. I also used the MLA International Bibliography for 1978 quite extensively. The change in publisher for Modern Drama supplied the occasion to make several time- and space-saving changes in bibliographical format. The design is now closer to continental than American practice. The bibliography is divided into ten parts: 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 122 CHARLES A. CARPENTER categories. Once again I am indebted to Professor J. Norman Wilkinson of Maine for sUbmitting several Chinese drama/theatre titles. 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, Bos, and Dub for the cities, Amer, Eng, Lit, Lang , Bibl, Assn, and Lib for the obvious, and UP to indicate a university press. Further abbreviations - most of them self-evident - are Bul for Bulletin, J for Journal , Mag for Magazine, Pr for Press, Qfor Quarterly, Rev for Review, and St for Studies.
