Dear fellow Slavicists,

A few months ago I wrote to you to ask for help in finding certain titles
(either to confirm their existence or, preferably, to locate a copy at a North
American library).  I do the same now eight titles.  This is part of an
annotated bibliography of the so-called _-no_/_-to_ construction in Polish and
Ukrainian which Prof. Joan Mailing (Brandeis Univ. Linguistics Dept.) and I
(ABD, Princeton Univ., Slavic linguistics; lecturer, Rutgers Univ. Slavic
Program) are compiling.

The bibliography, with over 400 titles is scheduled to appear in two parts
corresponding to the two issues of the _Journal of Slavic Linguistics_ vol. 3
(no. 1, spring 1995; no. 2, fall 1995).  Feel free to respond to me
(billings at princeton.edu).  If you prefer, you may REPLY to this message and it
will appear to the entire SEELANGS list (_caveat lector!_).  As an additional
measure to assure that this reach the most number of Slavicists, George Fowler
(Editor-in-Chief of _JSL_) will also be sending this in the next day or so to
his list of Slavic linguists, so some of you may receive it twice.  Please
feel free to forward this
query to any appropriate lists that you know about.

All the titles below happen to be on the Ukrainian part of the bibliography.
Thanks again to Nevenka West (Univ. of Manitobas Dafoe Slavic Collection), Bob
Rothstein (Univ. of Mass.), and Wayles Browne (Cornell Univ.) for assistance
with my previous queries to this list.  (I might point out that Bobs
recommendation of using the _Slavianskoe iazykoznanie_ bibliographic resources
was most helpful.  Unfortunately, since the early-1960s volume is missing (and
not yet here by interlibrary loan), I still havent consulted that invaluable
resource for certain items from that period.)

Arvat, N.N. (1961)  "Sravnitelnaia kharakteristika bezlichnogo passivnogo
oborota v russkom I ukrainskom iazykakh."  In _Pytannia istorii I
dealektolohii skhidnoslovans`kykh mov_ vol. II (possibly vol. 11 because it is
unclear whether these are roman or arabic numerals).  L`viv.  (This is one of
those I have not been able to confirm even the existence of; it is cited in a
later article by the author.  It is not listed in RLIN, OCLC, Slavic-Cyrillic
Union Catalog (SSC), NUC, and the Harvard, Princeton, Rutgers and NYPL
catalogs.)

Gladkii, M. [= Hladkyi, Mykola] (1918)  _Prakticheskii kurs ukrainskogo
iazyka.  Dlia uchit. [sic.] seminarii, uchit. [sic] kursov i starsh. [sic.]
class sredn. [sic.] uchebn. [sic.] zavedenii. _  Zhitomir: Rabotnik.  (I have
confirmed in _Slavianskoe ..._ that this source exists.  I already have the
2nd edition (Kiev, 1924).  Any help in locating this book would be greatly
appreciated.  This edition is not listed in any of the resources listed in the
previous entry.)

Ohiienko, Ivan [= Ilarion, Metropolitan of Winnipeg and all Canada] (1918)
_Bibliohrafichnyi pokazhchyk literatury do vyvchennia ukrains`koi movy._
Kyiv:  [publisher unknown].  (This title is referred to in an extensive
bibliography in a 1932 book by Smerechyns`kyi, recently re-published by
Ukrains`kyi vil`nyi universytet, in Munich.  I have been unable to find any
other reference to this book in any of the resources mentioned above, even in
_Slavianskoe ..._.)

Klepats`kyi, P. (1925 [possibly 1926])  "Review of _Uvahy do suchasnoi
ukrains`koi literaturnoi movy_ (1925, Kyiv), by Olena B. Kurylo."  _Zapysky
Poltavs`koho instytutu narodnoi osvity_ no(s). 1-3 (or possibly just 2), pp.
77-98.  (Cited in the same Smerechyns`kyi source as in the previous item;
confirmed in _Slavianskoe ..._, but not found in any of the library resources
mentioned so far.  I have looked under _Poltav..._, _Zapysky_, _Inst..._, the
last of which showed the same school name, but only in Kiev and Kharkov.)

Kostinskii, Iu. M. (1971)  _Genetivnye sub"ektnye konstruktsii v sovremennom
russkom [literaturnom] iazyke._  Avtoreferat kandidatskoi dissertatsii, IRIa
AN, Moskva.  (Confirmed in _Slavianskoe ..._, not found in any library
resources listed above.  The bracketed word is not included in one of the
sources.)

Matveenko, V[era] A[lekseevna] (1962)  _Stradatel`no-bezlichnyi oborot v
vostochnoslavianskikh iazykakh._  Avtoreferat kandidatskoi dissertatsii,
Moskva.  (Not confirmed in _Slavianskoe ..._ because I lack the early-1960s
volume.  Cited in a 1978 article by Georgiev.  Not found in any of the library
resources listed above.)

Matviienko [sic.], O. (1928)  "Instrumental` chynnosty pry pasyvnykh
diieprykmetnykakh."  In _Zbirnyk tsentral`nykh derzhavnykh kursiv
ukrainoznavstva_ kn. 1.  Kharkiv:  [publisher unknown]. pp. unknown.  (Cited
in Smerechyns`kyi (1932) and _Slavianskoe ..._; not found in any of the
library resources listed above.  I have searched under _Zbirnyk ..._ and
_Tsentral`n..._, not being sure whether the second word is the name of a
corporate entity.)

Matviienko, O. (1932)  _Syntaksychni paraleli._ [possibly _Stylistychni
paraleli._]  Kharkiv: [publisher unknown].  Cited in a few sources, including
_Slavianskoe ..._; not found in any of the library resources listed above.)

Myshurenko, P. Ie. (1964)  "Bezosobovi rechennia na -NO, -TO v ukrains`kykh
narodnykh prisliv`iakh."  In [Zb./Kn.] _Linhvistychnyi seminarii.  Tezi
dopovidei. vol. 1._  Dnipropetrovs`k: Dnipropetrovs`kyi derzh. univ., Kafedra
[Katedra?] ukrains`koi movy.  pp. 41-45.  (Confirmed in two different
articles, but not yet in the _Slavianskoe ..._ volume for the early 1960s.  I
have, however, found a similar (1966) citation in the _Slavianskoe ..._ volume
for the late 1960s, possibly referring to an article by the same author in
vol. 2 of the same _zbirnyk_.  Not found in any of the library resources
listed above.)
