  In this paper we survey many results on the Dirichlet space of analytic
functions. Our focus is more on the classical Dirichlet space on the disc and
not the potential generalizations to other domains or several variables.
Additionally, we focus mainly on certain function theoretic properties of the
Dirichlet space and omit covering the interesting connections between this
space and operator theory. The results discussed in this survey show what is
known about the Dirichlet space and compares it with the related results for
the Hardy space.
