Guide to Reference Works for the Study of the Spanish Language and Literature and Spanish American Literature


Book Description

Woodbridge's annotated bibliography has become the standard for graduate students seeking an introduction to Spanish language and literature studies and for librarians developing reference collections in the field. The second edition contains more than three hundred new entries and updates previous listings. An elaborate table of contents and three indexes will help researchers find needed resources quickly. The volume selectively lists and describes 1,230 valuable and important reference works published since 1950, including bibliographies, dictionaries, glossaries, concordances, union lists, catalogues, manuals, research guides, and dissertations. A short section on bibliographies covering both literature and language is followed by sections on the Spanish of Spain, American Spanish, Spanish literature of Europe, and Spanish literature of the Western Hemisphere. The guide concludes with an index of authors, editors, compilers, and translators; an index of authors and anonymous works as subjects; and a title index.
