A Bede Bibliography : 1935–1960

Extract

The following checklist includes work published in the quarter-century between 1935, the twelve-hundreth anniversary of Bede's death, and 1960, inclusive. It lists editions, studies and translations into Modern English of his Latin works; it omits translations into other languages, including Old English, and studies of these, as well as the Old English poems sometimes attributed to Bede. Most reviews of the listed books have also been omitted, although some which make substantial modifications have not. A universal writer like Bede is mentioned in many studies; only those that deal directly with him, or that seem to make real contributions to Bede scholarship, are in this checklist, which would otherwise have been many times its present length. The grouping is by topic, chronologically within each topic, alphabetically within each year. An asterisk marks those works which I have not been able to see.
