 Introduction
Since more than three decades we have been involved not only in systematically collecting works by and about Leon Trotsky, about Trotskyism and Trotskyists, but also have been engaged in cataloguing these materials and preparing a number of bibliographies, some of which were published in printed form between 1982 and 1999 (by Saur Verlag, Munich), while some other bibliographies in this field are presented as PDF or HTML files within the framework of our TrotskyanaNet website.
In this chapter of TrotskyanaNet, we provide
- a detailed description of our Trotsky Bibliography, a widely acknowledged reference work listing thousands of books, articles, dissertations etc. about Trotsky’s life, work and influence which was first published in 1982, followed by a second and third edition, considerably amended, in 1988 and 1999, respectively
- a detailed description and a PDF file of our Trotskyist Serials Bibliography, another reference work listing some 2,000 journals, bulletins and newsletters produced by Trotskyist parties and groups between 1927 and 1991.
In recent years, we have been providing a number of further bibliographies and related research tools relevant to Trotsky, Trotskyists and the Trotskyist movement: thus you can find on the pages of TrotskyanaNet bibliographical works about the following topics:
- Trotsky in Coyoacán : a bibliography about Trotsky’s last exile years and about his house in Coyoacán (Mexco), now the Museo Casa de León Trotsky (as at 2006, with some occasional additions),
- Ernest Mandel, an exhaustive bibliography of works by and about one of the most eminent Trotskyists for many decades (an ongoing project); an earlier version (2004) is still available as a PDF file,
- Pierre Broué, a bibliography of writings by and about the famous Trotsky biographer and Trotskyist historian,
- selected personal bibliographies about some dozens of other more or less outstanding Trotskyists (e.g. I. Deutscher, J. Hansen, J. Van Heijenoort, J.P. Cannon), featured within the chapter Bio-Bibliographical Sketches of TrotskyanaNet.
