Note for Themightyquill

[edit]

Hello! Thanks for making this bibliography a main article, and for your attention to it since.

It's certainly good, I now realise essential, to have a link to the György Lukács article (for all its problems). I removed yours after reading in the Manual of Style, "Do not place a link within the bolded title"—but if I couldn't think of anywhere else to put the link I should have left it.

Maybe we could have something like this?

There follows a bibliography of György Lukács (1885–1971). Lukács was a Hungarian Marxist philosopher and literary critic.

If that sounds OK, let me know, or please go ahead and change it yourself.

I notice you restored the days to Lukács's dates! My thought in removing them was just that, in terms of helping the reader to use the rest of the information on the page, they don't add anything to the years. However I won't undo your edit. Mouse ABC (talk) 22:30, 17 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No objections after a week, so a few minutes ago I edited the lead as suggested. Mouse ABC (talk) 22:32, 24 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry, Mouse ABC - for some reason I didn't automatically "watch" this page when I created it, so I didn't see your comments until now. All your changes look great. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 21:40, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, glad you're happy with them. This evening I should be able to look at the Penguin Marxists on Literature (with one or two essays from Studies on European Realism) and Lee Baxandall's bibliography Marxism and Aesthetics, which is supposed to have a checklist of English articles by Lukács to 1968.

Publication year of German original of The Meaning of Contemporary Realism

[edit]

It states here that The Meaning of Contemporary Realism was published in German in 1955, but in the English translation the preface to the German edition is dated 1957. Other secondary sources also cite 1957, but I can't find firsthand confirmation, either an actual German edition book (scan) or bibliographical note in German. Is 1955 a typo or more accurate than what I've found? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spacedunce-5 (talkcontribs) 15:50, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No, it was a mistake: thank you. The German publication year seems to be 1958. Mouse ABC (talk) 13:30, 11 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
