In THE OSCHOLARS issue for November 2007 we published an article by Dr Bashford on ‘The Sphinx without a Secret’ and a review by him of a production of the two Zemlinsky operas at Bard College.  We rounded this off by asking Dr Bashford to compile a bibliography of his publications on Wilde for us.  He very kindly furnished the one which we publish here.
