About my libraryThe tags for each book are ordered in the following manner:

genre: fiction, nonfiction, poetry, art;

format: novel, graphic novel, novella, short stories, essays, epic [poetry], anthology, collected works, bilingual, animation, photography;

language (if written at least in-part in another language): spanish, chinese;

subject(s): history, art, art history, art criticism, music history, politics, economics, economic theory, social commentary, biography, memoirs, literary criticism, philosophy (aesthetic theory, american, knowledge, literary theory, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, political theory, transcendentalism), africa, china, russia, bosnia, croatia, ireland;

title of work and original author ('various' for multiple authors);

editor(s), [name of editor(s)];

'translation' for works that are translated into English, with 'from...' and the language the work was translated from, and then the translator's name(s).

(The difference between "literary criticism" and "literary theory" is that the former applies a literary theory or theories or opinions to a piece of literature, while the latter discusses the logic behind a theory or theories.

Also, "philosophy" refers only to work that includes original insight; so, for example, Vendler's Poems, Poets, Poetry does not have "philosophy" as a tag, because it merely reviews/summarizes/explains ideas from other writers/critics.)

The list of tags above should be all-inclusive, with the exception of specific author/translator/editor names and titles. Also, none of the words in a tag are capitalized.
