The fifty-fourth volume of Studies continues its tradition of presenting a wide range of articles by international scholars on bibliography, textual criticism, and other aspects of the study of books.

The volume opens with G. Thomas Tanselle's latest survey of writings on textual criticism, this one covering the last five years of the twentieth century, followed by James McLaverty's account of the life and work of David Foxon, and a discussion of the nature of electronic texts. Other articles weigh new attributions (to Shakespeare, Fielding, Godwin, and De Quincey), examine how editors have treated their subjects (Shakespeare's plays, Richardson's correspondence, and Johnson's dictionary), bring to light lost works (by Lancelot Andrewes and a variety of twentieth-century writers), and unravel complicated textual histories (of a late eighteenth-century periodical, a Byron poem, and a Conrad novel).
