Mudge, Isadora Gilbert. Some Reference Books of 1924. Library Journal, XXIX, 15-28.

These articles are being issued annually as supplements to Miss Mudge's New Guide to Reference Books (Chicago: A. L. A. Publishing Board, 1923). They are valuable current bibliographies. Attention is called particularly to the following groupings: Periodicals, Literature, Biography, History, Bibliography, Public Documents. Murphy, Gwendolen. A Bibliography of English Character-Books, 1608-1700. Oxford University Press, for the Bibliographical Society, 1925. Pp. 179.

Northup, Clark Sutherland. Register of Bibliographies of the English Language and Literature. With contributions by Joseph Quincy Adams and Andrew Keogh. Cornell Studies in English, IX. Yale University Press, 1925. Pp. x, 507. This is the most important bibliographical work of the year, not only for students of the Renaissance but for all students of English. It was completed in 417 pages, and has an appendix of Additions and Corrections of 30 pages. The arrangement is alphabetical by author and subject after the manner of a library catalogue, except for its division into general bibliographical works and individual authors and topics. It will be most useful to scholars and to the reading public, though probably it would be more satisfactory to the former class if it had been made on such a general analytical scheme as Gross employs. In the preface the author invites attention to the principal gaps which exist in English bibliography: Old and Middle English, Elizabethan dramatists (except Shakespeare), Bacon, Milton,

Dryden, Addison, Goldsmith, Keats, Carlyle. The number of "topics might well have been increased, but for the publication of the work we may well be thankful.

1'" Homère" de Jean de Sponde. The article has the double effect of making still clearer the dependence of English classical culture upon the French and of expanding somewhat the idea one gets from Woodward or Sandys of the importance and extent of Greek study in England in the sixteenth century.
