Scientific paper

A discussion is presented of the 'classical' Be stars, which are defined as those of luminosity classes III to V, usually rapid rotators, which show normal B-type spectra with superposed Balmer, and sometimes Fe II, emission. Also included, however, are the Oe stars and the A-type shell stars, which seem to represent extensions of the classical Be phenomenon to higher and lower temperatures, respectively. Attention is given to the spectral classification of the stars underlying the Be shells, the variability of the Be spectra in the photographic and visual regions, and the evolutionary status of the classical Be stars. Comments are also presented on such frequently studied individual Be stars as Pleione, Phi Per, Gamma Cas, and 48 Lib.
