but the shorter form serves its purpose.
For the subject-entry of this last item we can choose between "Pronunciation, English," "English Pronunciation," and "Phonetics." An examination of the essay proves that for several reasons the first is the best to select, and it becomes
Pronunciation, English:
Bridges, R. The present state of English
pronunciation. (English Assoc, essays.)
1910
The matter can be easily put right, as before, by the serviceable references
English pronunciation. See Pronunciation, English.
Phonetics. See also Pronunciation.
The apparent frequency of such references seems to suggest that the catalogue would be chiefly composed of references, but as a matter of actual practice this is not so, as often a single reference serves for many books.
Ker, W. P. Browning. (English Assoc, essays.)
1910
Browning, Robert.
Ker, W. P. Browning. (English Assoc.
essays.) 1910
Neilson, Geo. On Blind Harry's Wallace.
(English Assoc. essays.) 1910
Harry, Blind. See Henry the Minstrel.
Henry the Minstrel. Blind Harry's Wallace.
Neilson, G. (English Assoc. essays.) 1910
Saintsbury, Geo. Shakespeare and the grand
style. (English Assoc. essays.) 1910
Shakespeare, Wm.
Saintsbury, G. Shakespeare and the grand
style. (English Assoc. essays.) 1910
This heading is likely to be so large in quantity of material that it will need some sub-division of the works on Shakespeare (which will follow those by him.)
Sichel, Edith. Some suggestions about bad
poetry. (English Assoc. essays.) 1910
Poetry.
Sichel, E. Some suggestions about bad
poetry. (English Assoc. essays.) 1910
A heading of this kind, of course, only includes books upon poetry as a subject, and not works because they are written in poetical form.
