The Concise Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature, 600-1950 Summary

The Concise Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature, 600-1950 by George Watson

This 1965 second edition is a total revision of the 1958 edition. It adds scores of additional titles to the bibliography and makes a number of changes throughout in light of the new knowledge since the first edition. The Concise Bibliography begins with a general introductory section and the rest of the book is divided into six time periods. Each section begins with general bibliographies, literary histories and general works. Then the principal authors are listed alphabetically. Each has two sections, works 'by' and works 'about'. The first section gives the main works, with dates and editors. This is annotated by Mr Watson where necessary. In the second edition the emphasis is on books rather than articles. The authors chosen are British (although James and Eliot are included), not American or Commonwealth; but the biographical, critical and historical works take account of the scholarship of other English-speaking countries.
