6. I limit the list to books in English. The list would be much longer if it included significant articles, of which there have been dozens, many of them never incorporated into later books, and if it included translations, which have long been a very important part of Pushkin scholars’ work in making the poet available to a broader audience. Also, beyond the mention of D. S. Mirsky's early book, I have not included books published in England, although of course many have been extremely influential, for example, John Bayley's 1971 study. I leave British books out regretfully, largely from the fear that my list would not be complete; moreover, for all the differences in tradition and training, British and American scholars have long been in very close touch, evidence of which is the inclusion of Wendy Slater's article in this volume.
