English Literature

The MLA International Bibliography is the major article database for English literature. It covers criticism related to literature, linguistics and folklore from 1921 to the present, and contains more than 1-million citations to journal articles, series, books, working papers and conference proceedings. Most of the materials indexed before 1963 are American.

Looking for articles, books or essays? This article database, covering scholarship from 1920 to the present, is worth exploring. Packed with more than 840,000 records, ABELL refers you to journal articles, books, essay collections, book reviews, and doctoral dissertations. Another advantage is the scope. Covering American, British and Commonwealth literature, as well as some material in languages besides English, ABELL is one of the two key indexes for English students--the other is the MLA International Bibliography.
