Walpole, Horace, 1717-1797. Notes and drawings, [18th century].

Title: Notes and drawings, [18th century].

Manuscript, in Walpole's and others' hands, of a collection of several dozen scraps of notes, verse fragments, sketches, and drawings, collected from Walpole's papers. The notes are primarily epigrammatic or anecdotal, on such topics as printing books; British monarchs; Waldegrave's time as ambassador at Paris; Lady Mary Coke's affectations; and Sir W. Draper's gambling. The collection also includes several riddles and verses. Some of the notes have been transcribed, on the same page, by Wilmarth Sheldon Lewis. The manuscript also contains 29 drawings, including pencil sketches of Strawberry Hill done by Walpole; a pen-and-wash drawing of a scene from The Castle of Otranto accompanied by a note of thanks from Mrs Susanna (Highmore) Duncombe; a pen drawing of the actor William Kemp copied from the frontispiece of a book; numerous busts; a detailed pastoral landscape scene in pencil, possibly by Agnes Berry; pencil sketches of a pig, cow, and dog; pen sketches by Sir John Fenn; and a woodcut title page to a book of John Skelton's works, dated 1523.

Title: Stanley Fish papers, 1921-2001, bulk 1960-1998.

This collection documents Stanley Fish's professional career as a literary theorist and academic. Materials are largely textual--including primarily drafts of his writings, publications, and clippings and photocopies for teaching and research purposes--and range in coverage from his early student work to his most recent professional activities and publications. The collection also includes a limited amount of correspondence and many audio recordings, the latter of which document his activities as a public intellectual and teacher. Although each period of Fish's career is represented in collection materials, documentation from his time at Duke University is strongest. Materials documenting his activity as an administrator--department chair at Johns Hopkins and Duke, executive director of Duke University Press, and dean at the University of Illinois at Chicago--are very limited.
