Literary theory has become the hegemonic methodology for the study of text and is often regarded both as a sub-discipline in itself and as a critical tool through which to liberate deeper and more complex meanings from texts. It encompasses a massive range of topics, including periods, movements, themes and works that make it a dynamic field of study. Given that literary theory draws from other disciplines such as linguistics, philosophy, psychoanalysis, sociology, the social sciences and work from non-Anglophone cultures and traditions, the very scope which makes it a necessary tool for contemporary academics and intellectuals can be off-putting in terms of locating a starting point for any specific inquiry. Oxford Bibliographies in Literary and Critical Theory will offer clearly-signposted pathways through the different areas, and will make clear references to the other disciplines which feed in to, and are often transformed by, literary theory

The study of music, "musicology," is a relatively new discipline in academe, beginning in late nineteenth-century Germany. In the second half of the twentieth century, "ethnomusicology" became a viable academic discipline spawning a scholarly literature for the study of all musics not treated by traditional ("historical") musicology. Oxford Bibliographies in Music combines the features of a high-level encyclopedia and a traditional bibliography in a style tailored to meet the needs of today's online researchers. Each article, written and reviewed by top scholars in the field, is rich with citations and annotations, expert recommendations, and narrative pathways to the most important works for virtually all areas of music.

intelligentsia in the first half of the twentieth century and a significant chronicle of Republican-era China in superbly produced
full-image and full-text format with rich indexing. The Eastern Miscellany, as it is known in English, and formally entitled
