INTERNATIONAL PROVERB SCHOLARSHIP: AN
UPDATED BIBLIOGRAPHY, 1997
This year's updated bibliography with its 376 entries is
the largest list of secondary literature I have ever
presented in Proverbium. The reason for this
impressive number lies in the fact that I am paying ever
more attention to the interrelationship of paremiology and
phraseology. While Proverbium clearly emphasizes
studies dealing with proverbs, proverbial expressions,
proverbial comparisons, and wellerisms, it must be
acknowledged that many phraseological publications touch on
these verbal genres as well. The two disciplines of
paremiology and phraseology are definitely interlinked, and
both of them can benefit from each other. In fact, many
scholars have both feet solidly planted in both areas.
As has always been the case, I have concentrated on the
newest scholarship while at the same time also listing
publications that have hitherto not been registered in the
annual bibliographies of Proverbium or my three
volumes of International Proverb Scholarship: An
Annotated Bibliography (New York: Garland Publishing,
1982, 1990, and 1993). This accounts for the fact that a few
references go as far back as the nineteenth century or at
least stem from a few decades ago.
Let me thank all of those colleagues and friends who have
once again supplied me with information for this
bibliography, notably Rainer Eckert (Berlin), Wolfgang
Eismann (Graz), Jarmo Korhonen (Helsinki), Gyula Paczolay
(Veszprém), Elisabeth Piirainen (Münster),
Helmut Walther (Wiesbaden), and Fionnuala Williams
(Belfast). Please help me in obtaining the most current
bibliographical references. If at all possible, send actual
copies of your own publications and those of other scholars.
Keep in mind that I am more than willing to purchase
monographs in order to keep my international proverb archive
as up-to-date and as inclusive as humanly possible. Thank
you all for your much appreciated help and support of my
labors and especially of Proverbium.
