PREFACE In compiling the following list of Gray editions and criticism I have had in mind primarily the needs of the eighteenth-century student rather than those of the collector of rare books. Consequently, few collations of recent publications have seemed necessary, although many entries are included which it is hoped will be of value to the collector as well as to the student. Most of the material represented is that published since 1916, the last year covered in Professor Clark S. Northup's Bibliography of Thomas Gray; but some material from the earlier period is also included. The latter entries consist of publications omitted by Professor Northup or of supplementary information concerning entries which he has included. To simplify the location of these entries in his bibliography, there is printed after the number of each item the number which does, or should, accompany the entry in his compilation. These numbers are set off by a hyphen and prefixed by the letter A¡. There are a few minor changes such as the italicizing of the titles of books, but usually I have attempted to conform to Professor Northup's practice in form and, with the exceptions noted below, in scope. Although some accidental omissions are inevitable in all bibliographies, I hope that I have not overlooked anything of major importance. However, in the 1917-1951 section certain omissions are deliberate. Like Professor Northup, I have made no attempt to include general histories of English literature unless there has seemed to be some particular justification for their i n c l u s i o n — a few histories written by Continental authors, for example , have been noted since they may help to reveal the attitude toward Gray adopted by European critics. Anthologies of English literature have also been excluded unless they were of a specialized nature. Certain works which contained merely one passing reference to Gray have been omitted, and book reviews are included only if they mention Gray. Otherwise, the accumulation of material would have obscured the more important publications. Whenever possible, the books and articles themselves have been consulted to insure greater accuracy, but unfortunately a few have not been available for examination. Since many publications discuss more than one of Gray's literary or scholarly productions, the critical sections for the individual works frequently do not represent all the comment on the particular work in which the reader may be interested. Much additional information may be found in the section entitled 'General Criticism.' To locate this the reader should consult the index entry for the poem or essay with which he is concerned. As a further aid, the index will occasionally refer the reader to critical articles which mention or discuss one of Gray's works that it has not seemed necessary to list in the description of the article given in the text of the bibliography. The more detailed or more important treatments of Gray are in most instances indicated by an asterisk. When the title does not give some inkling of the nature of the material involved, a brief descriptive note has usually been added to the entry. In general, page numbers have been noted only if the book referred to does not have an index. For the longer periodical articles and the essays collected in book form the numbers of only the pages containing Gray material are given. The customary noting of the first and last pages of articles is therefore abandoned unless the article is largely or entirely concerned with Gray. I must also express my gratitude to many friends and colleagues who have aided me in this compilation. I am particularly indebted to my wife, who not only has done much of the exacting clerical work but also has typed the final copy of the manuscript, and to the late Professor Northup, who has very kindly

sent me many notes which he had accumulated over a period of several years and has most generously furnished me with advice and information throughout the entire course of this project. Professors Ames Johnston and Joseph Meredith of Temple University have helped me in the checking of the foreign language entries (Professor Meredith has also proofread the final draft); and I have been assisted by Dr. Hughbert Hamilton, Dr. John P. Emery. Mr. Joseph Whitt, Dr. James D. Powell, Dr. William W. Langebartel. Professor Milton A. Buchanan, Dr. A. T. Hazen, Dr. T. C. Duncan Eaves, Sir Eugen Millington-Drake, Mr. Philip Gaskell, Miss Eleanor Tilton, Professor Miriam R. Small, Mrs. Josephine S. Couper, Dr. Rafael H. Valle, Senor Guillermo R. Hall, Mr. Carl Anderson, Miss Eleanor Campion and staff of the Philadelphia Bibliographical Center and Union Library Catalogue, and by the staffs of the libraries noted in my list of abbreviations, especially Mr. Walter Hausdorfer, Mr. Elkan Buchhalter, and Miss Carolyn Bliss of Temple University Library and Senores EHuardo Ponce de Leon and Tomas Magallon of the Biblioteca Nacional, Madrid. Finally, much of my work has been made possible by a grant from the Temple University Research Fund. October, 1952
