Purdy (1904-90) was a leading scholar of the 20th century on British writer Hardy (1840-1928), and his 1954 study was published by Oxford University Press. It has continued to be recognized as both an authoritative bibliography and a biography drawing on early and exceptional access to Hardy's books and papers and information from his widow and others. Charles P.C. Pettit, a librarian in Oxfordshire County Council, augments a corrected reproduction of the 1979 printing with additional material: an introduction considering Purdy's work in the context of continuing Hardy studies, and a supplement in two parts, the first comprising a bibliography of works that expand or update Purdy's information, and the second a listing of errors and additional information. Co-published with the British Library. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

cloth, dust jacket. Hardy, Thomas (illustrator). 8vo. cloth, dust jacket. 432 pages. Second edition. This work brings the 1954 first edition up-to-date with over five decades of new bibliographical reference additions all contained in a new two-part supplement. The first part guides the reader through the mass of material published on Hardy in recent decades by providing an annotated bibliography of key works that expand or update the information supplied by Purdy. The second part draws upon the contributions of a number of Hardy scholars in identifying errors in the book as originally published and significant bibliographical information that has become available since that time. Charles P.C. Pettit has contributed substantial additional material to aid today's reader. An Introduction describes the compilation of A Bibliographical Study and evaluates its key attributes, its place in the evolution of single-author bibliography, and its influence on Hardy studies. The author, Richard Little Purdy (1904-1990), was one of the leading Hardy scholars of the twentieth century. In addition to writing this classic bibliography, Purdy collaborated with Michael Millgate in editing the seven indispensable volumes of Hardy's Collected Letters. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 69934
