Excerpt from Indexes to a Balzac Bibliography The success obtained by Mr. Royce's Balzac Bibliography and the gen eral tone of the reviews on both sides of the water encourage the publica tion of this supplement. In fact, the main criticism passed on the original work was that the very wealth of material called for a thorough Index. Considerations of space and time forbade its inclusion in the first volume. But the critical objection is at length answered. Valuable as Royce's bibliography is, it becomes invaluable to the student and amateur of realistic fiction through the abundance of references here furnished. Neither volume is complete without the other. The Index by Periodicals in which Balzac is treated connects with Part II of the original Bibliography. The arrangement of item-numbers is chronological under each journal and thus, if worked out, will chart certain waves of enthusiasm for Balzac, or the reverse. Further, if a read er desires to know what or how many articles on the novelist have been printed in the Nation or in the Revue des deux mondes, this list will promptly guide him to the appropriate titles.
