Index to Dreiser Studies (Volumes 26-30, 1995-1999)



Originally published in Dreiser Studies 31.1 (Spring 2000) 
Prepared by Keith Newlin


Index to Volumes 26-30 This index is a five-year supplement to the index of volumes 1-25 of the Dreiser Newsletter and Dreiser Studies that appeared in the Spring 1995 issue of Dreiser Studies (26.1). It is divided into three parts: a subject index, a list of books reviewed, and an index of contributors. The subject index lists articles under the names of Dreiser’s works; the heading “Miscellaneous” lists those articles not chiefly about a single Dreiser work. A separate heading, “Publication of Dreiser’s Works,” lists the first publication of a Dreiser manuscript. Reviews of books appear under the name of the author or editor of the book, with the reviewer’s name given in parentheses in the citation. In the Index of Contributors, reviews are grouped separately and cited after other contributions by the contributor. This index, as well as the index to volumes 1-25, will also be published on the Dreiser Studies website:http://www.uncw.edu/dreiser/studies/ .
