The instruction manual: |
Bibliographic code: Section E |
Section E includes writing about art, by or translated by Ashbery, in books, exhibition catalogues and announcements. Writing about art includes writing about architecture, film, the decorative arts, etc. Section E items usually represent the first publication of a particular text as a "separate" (i.e., not in serial or periodical format). Texts reprinted from another book or exhibition catalogue usually are not given separate citations in Section E, but may be mentioned in the notes field of the original citation. Texts reprinted from a periodical (Section F) in a book or exhibition catalogue for the first time will appear in Section E.
Whether or not an item belongs in Section E is determined by the type or subject of the text itself, rather than the nature of the publication in which it appears. For example, art books and exhibition catalogues including poems by Ashbery, but not writing about art, will be listed in Section B rather than Section E.
