Help with references

By Tuur.

Hello lieve mensen,

I think I will need some help with the references. There are a number of texts (essays) that we got from Wiel Kusters. I will use many of them for the essay, but I don’t know how to refer to them (only have the text & page numbers).

Can anybody tell me exactly from what book (name, author, date, publisher) these essays come?

I’m talking about:

– Making, Knowing and Judging (p. 31-60)

– The Virgin & The dynamo (p. 61- 71)

– The Poet & The city (p. 72-89)

Many thanks, and I guess i’ll run into more reference troubles later so keep an eye out.

for the first one see wikipedia:
The Dyer’s Hand and other essays is a prose book by W. H. Auden, published in 1962.
The book contains a selection of essays, reviews, and collections of aphorisms and notes written by Auden from the early 1950s through 1962. Many items were not previously published; others appeared in revised form. Many of the essays are revised versions of Auden’s lectures as Professor of Poetry at Oxford University, 1956-61, and includes Auden’s inaugural lecture, “Making, Knowing and Judging”.

It’s a separate book. The collected Prose by Auden does not have these texts under these headings. The content might be found spread over different headings. You should borrow Prof. Kusters copy of the book and use it.

Same with the collected poems, didn’t copy the title.
I know this is a redicoues problem that could only happen to me (and I’m not in Maastricht any soon). So my excuses but:

Any help?

The Complete Works of W. H. Auden: Prose, Volume II 1939 -1948 – edited by E. Mendelson, published in 2002 by Princeton University press, Princeton, New Jersey

Volume III of the prose covers 1949 – 1955, same editor and publisher, but publised in 2008
