This list indicates editions and facsimiles of primary texts, criticism, history, background materials, and other texts relevant to the exhibition. Far from exhaustive, the bibliography identifies sources of particular interest for each rubric below. While the earliest items listed date from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, most appeared in the last generation or so and belong to the recent wave of attention directed to the material aspects of literary texts. Some titles, for instance collections of essays containing several useful texts, are listed under only the heading about which they have most to say, and may be consulted more broadly than the list indicates. The notes of the essays in this issue of the Bulletin provide further and more particular references, and should be treated as supplements to the list below.
