Walter J. Ong Bibliography
I realize that I’ve never mentioned that Dr. Thomas Walsh’s Walter J. Ong, S.J.: A Bibliography 1929-2006 is available online, both as a PDF and as a searchable database. Dr. Walsh, a Associate Pofessor at Saint Louis University and former student and close friend of Fr. Ong, spent a a number of years compiling the most comprehensive and up-to-date bibliography of Ong’s publications, running from 1929-2006. Dr. Walsh complied the bibliography using Fr. Ong’s own bibliographic records as a starting point and extensively double-checked, corrected, and updated information using a variety of sources including material in the Walter J. Ong Collection. Drafts of this bibliography were of great use to me as I processed the scholarship materials of the Ong collection and I long waited for this final draft. In the introduction, Dr. Walsh notes that as of 2006 when reprints, revisions, and translations are included, Fr. Ong has 909 distinct publications. Or, to put this another way, the PDF version of the bibliography is 69 pages long.
