This is both an open-ended bibliography & intended specifically (originally) for two articles that function as appendices to the Fortune & Familiarity series.
Please see the Fortune & Familiarity series bibliography as an introduction to this bibliography. In other words, the present bibliography supplements that earlier listing, and items will not be duplicated between them. Similar statements of purpose apply.
The following two articles were originally associated with this listing:
At that point, the page remained open-ended, and I continued to add items for potential (& then actual) future purposes — or (perhaps) simply to let readers know of new titles that might seem worthwhile. The first section below, however, gives the bibliography at the time of finishing Practical listening (section 5). Later items will be placed in sections that follow.

I intend to devote less time to writing large theoretical tracts
going forward, but I do already have more books lined up to read....

spend much less time writing large-scale texts after Spring 2016,
after all, and that didn't really happen.)
