John Milton; an annotated bibliography, 1989-1999.

This bibliography updates the late Huckabay's previous volumes John Milton: An Annotated Bibliography, 1929-1968 and John Milton: An Annotated Bibliography, 1968-1988 by listing editions and translations of Milton's works and annotating books, essays, notes, dissertations, and other scholarship published about Milton and his works from 1989-1999. Items not included in the previous volumes are also listed, as are reviews of listed editions, monographs, and book-length essay collections, including those that appeared after 1999. Urban (English, Calvin College) edited and lengthened the previous entries and added several hundred new ones, including annotations of new articles. Sources include bibliography and reference works; biographies; editions; translations; general criticism and miscellaneous items; criticism of individual works such as Milton's shorter poems, prose works, Paradise Lost, Paradise Regained, and Samson Agonistes; scholarship on his style and versification and fame and influence; and criticism of editions, translations, and illustrations.

Levinas studies; an annual review; v.6.

European and US scholars, mostly of philosophy, present nine essays on the thought of Lithuanian-born French philosopher and Talmudic scholar Emmanuel Levinas (1906-95). One of them is a translation of a March 1978 interview with him on French television. Others consider such topics as reflections on the metaphysical God and his demise: Heidegger and Levinas in dialogue, revisiting the debate on his supposed anti-naturalistic humanism, and the novelty of religion and the religiosity of substitution in Levinas and Agamben.
