The years 1973 to 1994 cover an important period in Byron scholarship and include the publication of the definitive editions of Byron's poetry, prose, letters, journals, and manuscripts as well as a more comprehensive understanding and appreciation of the man and poet through such contemporary foci as New Historicism, Marxism, Feminism, and literary theory. Goode's volume (with its almost 9,000 entries) is an indispensable guide to this diverse mass of material.This comprehensive bibliography includes all secondary material on Byron in English from the popular to the scholarly for the years 1973 to 1994. Entries are briefly annotated and are arranged according to the publication year to allow users to trace the development of Byron scholarship. Reviews of important scholarly books are also included. Six appendixes list dissertations and theses; sales, library acquisitions, and holdings; places and items associated with Byron; poetical tributes, attacks, and imitations; continuations, adaptations, parodies, satires, and poems occasioned by the works of Byron; and Byron in drama, fiction, and poetry. Thoroughly indexed by author, poem, and subject. Recommended for all college and university libraries.
