We shall introduce the main theorems of value distribution theory in the most general case of complex dimension one: analytic mappings of arbitrary Riemann surfaces into arbitrary Riemann surfaces. The case of mappings of arbitrary Riemann surfaces into closed Riemann surfaces was discussed in [41]. Earlier literature on analytic mappings is listed in the Bibliography.
