Among the Mormons

Eleven years ago, Dialogue and Ralph W. Hansen began an association which would last a decade and produce nearly forty Among the Mormons columns. His painstaking contribution stands as a monument to dedication and diligence. Who else would have had the sheer tenacity to prepare incisive, comprehensive surveys of Mormon literature every three months for almost ten years? Dialogue appreciates this unique man whose name has graced its pages on more occasions than any other author. As long as there are serious students of Mormons and Mormonism, Ralph Hansen’s works will continue to serve the purpose for which they were intended. 

In our quest to continue the excellence of Among the Mormons, we gratefully acknowledge our debt to Chad Flake for his bibliography Mormon Americana, distributed semi-monthly by the Brigham Young University Library primarily for the benefit of libraries with an interest in Mormon literature; the editors of the new reference publication Index to Mormonism in Periodical Literature, published by the Historical Department of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints; and those various other authors whose studies for a variety of reasons grace neither of these comprehensive publications. 

The bibliography of periodical literature which follows includes the major articles published since Hansen’s Among the Mormons column in Volume X, No. 1 of Dialogue. As has been the practice, with few exceptions, articles appearing in official LDS publications, with which most Dialogue readers are familiar, have not been included. 

Among the Mormons will continue to cover the entire bibliographical specturm—articles, books and dissertations—each year. It is also proposed to develop an annual bibliography of articles on Mormons and Mormonism which have appeared in major newspapers.
