The term “Be star” has been used at times to describe classes of objects which are physically rather different from one another. While it could include early-type supergiant stars with Hα emission, early-type pre-main sequence nebular variables, or quasi-planetary nebulae like MWC 349, I will limit this review paper to a discussion of the “classical” Be stars. These are defined as stars of luminosity classes III to V, usually rapid rotators, which show normal B-type spectra with superposed Balmer (and sometimes Fe II) emission. Included also, however, will be 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.
