Excerpt from Guide to the Study of Medieval History: For Students, Teachers, and LibrariesBibliography, presents a classified list of the most important special books and articles which will guide students in making reports and in preparing papers, but which is particularly designed for mature readers and for investigators who desire a survey of the most important literature in the fields in which they are Interested. Ordinarily the literature on a given subject is thus divided under "B," Special Recommendations for Reading, and "C," Bibliography, and should be sought for under both headings. At the end of each section are listed the special bibliographies which must be consulted by those who wish to pursue the subject to its ultimate limits.While the mimeographed syllabi mentioned above were designed for only certain grades of college students, this printed Guide has been modified and augmented so as to appeal to all classes of students and readers who have advanced beyond the textbook stage and who have access to good libraries. It is hoped that teachers will find it useful and that librarians will give it a place among their books of reference. The task of selection, which is always difficult, has been rendered peculiarly delicate by the plan to make the book appeal to so wide a circle of readers. The present resources and the future needs of the University of California Library have been made the basis of selection. In this Guide there are listed all books, valuable for a study of medieval history, which now are in this library, and in addition, all others on this subject, which, in the opinion of the author, should be acquired by the library in tho near future. It is hoped that this basis of selection will be considered as practical and as representative as any which might have been adopted to suit conditions in America.The difficulty of choosing from the mass of literature in the various modern European languages has been met by selecting all the best material in English, French, and German, and by making a more limited selection from books in Italian and Spanish. Except in rare instances, all the other modern European languages have been neglected.English history is not treated fully because in America the subject is usually taught in separate courses and because we have such admirable bibliographical guidance for the medieval period in the second edition of C. Gross, The sources and literature of English history.In a book of this kind there is not much space for commentary and criticism of individual works.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
