Buffy Studies by Discipline/Method/Approach

 

This under-construction and admittedly arbitrary (and incomplete) classification scheme includes published essays in print and online journals and published and forthcoming collections, essays submitted for consideration to Slayage, a few theses and dissertations, books on BtVS, proposals received for the Slayage Conference on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and papers given at conferences such as Blood, Text and Fears. (In a few cases titles are included under more than one category.)

 

It is greatly indebted to Derik Badman's Academic Buffy Bibliography. Comments/corrections are welcome (lavery@slayage.tv).
