One of the great American authors of the 20th century, John
Steinbeck (1902-1968) continues to be a focus of academic study and
the source of interest to readers around the globe. All of the
Nobel-prize winner's major works remain in print, as new
generations discover the power of such novels as Of Mice and Men,
East of Eden, and The Grapes of Wrath, as well as nonfiction works
like Travels with Charley, The Log from the Sea of Cortez and
America and Americans. In addition to reissued works by Steinbeck,
each year new articles and books are written about him, examining
the themes of his works and his impact on literature. With such a
prolific output, bibliographic resources have become a necessity,
and in 1967, Scarecrow Press published the first Steinbeck
bibliography, with subsequent volumes following in 1974, 1981, and
1998. In the latest volume, Steinbeck scholar and historian Michael
J. Meyer has compiled Steinbeck material written or published
between 1996 and 2006. The John Steinbeck Bibliography: 1996-2006
includes thousands of citations that cover a broad range of
publications, including newspaper articles, full length critical
studies, dissertations, theses, book reviews in English, and missed
work from previous volumes, as well as websites and other media.
The bibliography also cites foreign language translations of
Steinbeck's works as well as foreign language books, journals and
reviews. The comprehensive index will help scholars determine which
entries are related to various novels, themes and historical events
that are part of the Steinbeck canon. As a resource for literature
scholars and researchers, The John Steinbeck Bibliography:
1996-2006 will prove to be as invaluable as the previous volumes.
