Abstract

BIBLIOGRAPHIES A COMPLETE BIBLIOGRAPHY OF COLLECTIONS OF EGYPTIAN SHORT STORIES (1921-1970) The study of modern Arabic literature is a steadily growing field, both in the Arab world and in the West. Yet, it suffers from the lack of reliable bibliographies to provide an academically exhaustive survey of the field- an essential prerequisite for any serious or detailed study of any literary genre. Each worthwhile study in the field, whether in Arabic or in a European language, seems to start from scratch: compile its own limited or comprehensive bibliography on the basis of which commences the research. Once the research ends in a written or published form, the re- searcher keeps his own bibliography in the darkness of his own drawer, either because of its incompleteness or as a result of an unacademic attitude that conceals the resources of one's information in order not to expose one's work or to shed any doubt on its substance. There is also the attitude that considers one's own bibliography as a vital part of the secrets of one's trade. Such attitudes, one hardly needs to say, are far from the true spirit of academia and cause a great deal of unnecessary duplication
