Carl Russell Fish papers

Title: Carl Russell Fish papers

Correspondence, lectures, and writings, mainly 1891-1932, of Carl Russell Fish, a professor of American history at the University of Wisconsin. The correspondence is particularly strong for the World War I period, including many letters from former students in the military (including a few from Archangel in 1919), and letters documenting Fish's many local, state, and national patriotic activities. Among these were service with the National Board for Historical Service, which assisted history teachers in adjusting their teaching to wartime conditions, and work as director in London of the American University Union, which was established for college men in the Army. Documented peacetime activities include the University Curriculum Committee, the Anglo-American Club, and various peace groups. The papers also show Fish's connections with the General Board of Religious Education of the Episcopal Church and the American School of the Air. Fish was widely acquainted with American and British historians and other intellectuals and the collection includes correspondence with Edward Channing, E. Merton Coulter, Charles G. Crump, Albert Bushnell Hart, J. Franklin Jameson, Alexander Meiklejohn, Frederic L. Paxson, Winifred T. Root, Lucy M. Salmon, Asa C. Tilton, Frederick Jackson Turner, and many others. Correspondence is also frequent with the American Book Company, a textbook publisher. Published syllabi for several classes taught by Fish are held by the Historical Society Library. His popular course, "Representative Americans," is documented by lecture notes, readings, and an unpublished book manuscript on the same subject. Research for a posthumously published book on the Civil War includes transcripts of manuscripts in the Library of Congress and two boxes of note cards of data from foreign sources. A typewritten manuscript by Lester J. Cappon references many ideas from Fish scholarship. In addition, there is a diary of brief entries for the years 1852-1853 kept by his father Isaac of Providence, Rhode Island during a trip to Europe, Egypt, and the Near East. The financial miscellany includes pre-Revolution Russian government bonds. The photographs were enclosed with the World War I correspondence and include several of Chanute Field from Robert Brown, a pilot.

Meiklejohn, Alexander, 1872-1964. Meiklejohn papers, 1894-1924 (bulk 1912-1923).

Title: Meiklejohn papers, 1894-1924 (bulk 1912-1923).

The papers consist chiefly of correspondence to and from Meiklejohn during his tenure as president of Amherst College, 1912-1923. His correspondents were educators and philosophers like himself, among them W.R. Agard, Benjamin Andrews, and W.H.P. Faunce. Their letters and his display wit and personal warmth as well as extensive analysis of abstract ideas and philosophy, especially as they relate to the two dominant themes of Meiklejohn's life and career: education and freedom. Letters to and from prominent figures at Amherst College, such as Stanley King, Dwight W. Morrow and especially George A. Plimpton (with whom Meiklejohn communicated throughout his entire Amherst career) focus sharply on those themes as they relate to his administration of the College, especially to the faculty and curriculum reforms he introduced. Correspondence is also found in the remaining materials, which relate to faculty and student affairs, administration and curriculum, and to the circumstances of his resignation, requested by the trustees in 1923 when it was felt that responses to his innovative practices had polarized the faculty to a point of immobility. Correspondence concerning the resignation is grouped separately at the end of the papers; there is also a file of newspaper clippings from the period.
