Students of Early Christian and Medieval civilizations have long been aware of the need for comprehensive and reliable bibliographies. This need has been felt even more keenly by those who are primarily interested in the East Christian world, for information on either primary sources or critical studies is too often scattered in books and periodicals which are not easily available even in large libraries. The recent publication by Hakob S. Anasian of the first volume of his Armenian Bibliology is a major event for these studies and deserves to be called to the attention of all medievalists. I wish to express here my thanks to the editors of Traditio who, realizing the significance of this publication, accepted the present article although it has been their general policy not to include book reviews in their journal.
