Introductions to Modern Library Books, 1917-1985 may not be reproduced for any other purpose, commercial or noncommercial, in any format (print, electronic, etc., including posting on web sites other than ModernLib), without written permission of the copyright holder. Linking from other web sites to Introductions to Modern Library Books, 1917-1985 on ModernLib is permissible.

This index to authors of introductions to Modern Library books is from my forthcoming bibliography, The Canon in the Marketplace: A Descriptive Bibliography of the Modern Library Series, 1917-1990. It includes introductions to volumes in the regular Modern Library and Modern Library Giants. The author of the introduction is followed by the author, title, publication date, and bibliography number of the book being introduced. Authors who wrote introductions to their own books are followed directly by the title; see, for example, Sherwood Anderson’s introduction to the Modern Library edition of his novel Poor White. Introductions commissioned by the Modern Library and originally published in Modern Library books [including those that may have been commissioned for and first appeared in Modern Library college editions - Ed.] are identified by an asterisk. The lack of an asterisk indicates that the introduction was reprinted from a previous edition of the book or first appeared in a periodical. Introductions by editors of Modern Library anthologies are not included.

Numbering system: Like other scholarly descriptive bibliographies, entries in my bibliography of the Modern Library series are arranged chronologically by publication date. Bibliography numbers for regular Modern Library books begin with 1, Oscar Wilde’s Picture of Dorian Gray (1917), and continue through 642, Mark Twain, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1985). Bibliography numbers are extended to indicate successive typesettings and families of printings. The three typesettings of Flaubert’s Madame Bovary, the twenty-fifth title published in the Modern Library, are numbered 25.1, 25.2, and 25.3. Families of printings within typesettings are based on reset title pages, introductions added and dropped, and other significant differences (excluding variant dust jackets). The Steegmuller translation of Madame Bovary (25.3) exists in four families of printings. The initial printings were unillustrated. After the first two or so printings, four line drawings created for the Book-of-the-Month Club were added to the plates. The last two families of printings are based on reset or partially reset title pages in 1969/70 and 1978. The families of printings of the Steegmuller translation are numbered 25.3a through 25.3d. The numbering system and arrangement of the bibliography reflect the historical purpose of bibliographical scholarship and differ from the system based on Modern Library catalog numbers used in Henry Toledano’s Modern Library Price Guide and www.ModernLib.com.
