In the world of words, there are certain standard bearers on which we always rely, and the Modern Language Association (MLA) International Bibliography is one of them. This research tool is the seminal bibliography in literature and the humanities, offering nearly 1.6 million bibliographic citations from more than 8,000 journals, as well as scholarly monographs and dissertations.
The MLA International Bibliography covers academic disciplines such as:
- Language
- Literature
- Folklore
- Linguistics
- Film
Linguistics and language materials range from the history and theory of linguistics, comparative linguistics and semantics to stylistics, syntax and translation. Other topics include literary theory and criticism, dramatic arts (film, radio, television and theater) and the history of printing and publishing. Recent listings encompass rhetoric and composition and the history, theory and practice of teaching language and literature. The MLA International Bibliography includes world scholarship in English, French, Spanish, German, Italian and many other languages.
