This volume documents the remarkable range of E H Gombrich's achievements, from his first article published in 1930 to a book review, letters, a lecture and other pieces published as recently as April 2000. Following established bibliographical principles, it lists in chronological order the staggering range of his books, articles, reviews, prefaces and other published pieces, giving each item a unique reference number.

The documentation is as complete as the author and publisher can possibly make it, and includes countless reprints, new editions and translations. There are full indexes of titles, books reviewed and names. This bibliography will be an invaluable working tool for scholars, libraries and bibliophiles. Simultaneously it embodies a monumental tribute to one of the greatest scholars of the age, who died in 2001.

Throughout his career Gombrich was a prolific author. In addition to the world-famous Story of Art and Art and Illusion, he published a long succession of scholarly articles, many of which have been republished in his volumes of collected essays and translated into numerous languages. This complete listing of all these works and assorted smaller pieces provides a testament to the extraordinary spectrum of Gombrich's interests and his international standing as a scholar and popularizer of art and culture.
