Chronological Bibliography of Science Fiction History, Theory, and Criticism
http://www.depauw.edu/sfs/biblio.htm
Chronological Bibliography of Science Fiction History, Theory, and Criticism The following bibliography of science fiction criticism does not claim to be exhaustive. It does, however, gather together a large number of critical materials on sf that the editors of SFS deem to be important, influential, or historically noteworthy. We have listed the entries in chronological order since such a format, we feel, affords a useful glimpse of the evolution of sf criticism from 1634 to the present. In those cases where items listed on the bibliography have either been reviewed in SFS or featured in our Documents in the History of SF series, we have inserted links to the relevant pages.
