Abstract
This bibliography seeks to offer a comprehensive (if by no means exhaustive) overview of nuclear criticism, tracing its development from the 1984 issue of diacritics which saw the publication of Derrida's seminal article “No Apocalypse, Not Now (Full Speed Ahead, Seven Missiles, Seven Missives)” to the present day. Particular attention is paid to areas of interest which are underrepresented in the available literature (nuclear legacies and Pacific identities; Eastern European approaches to Chernobyl), and every attempt has been made to offer a resource which is wide-ranging in outlook while providing a clear sense of the central texts which have shaped and reshaped what we understand as nuclear criticism. Texts focusing solely on individual works have, by and large, been excluded. Brief notes accompany some of the entries, although it has not been practical to provide these for all the works mentioned: they should be taken as a record of an individual approach to the texts in question rather than as marks of overarching significance.
