Papers of the centenary edition of the works of Nathaniel Hawthorne, 1960-1997?.

The collection consists of the working papers of the centenary edition of Hawthorne published by the Ohio State University Press. According to William Charvat in a document within the collection dated November 18, 1964, this centenary edition is "the first edition of a major American writer to be based on a full and rigorous use of modern textual principles ; the first for which all relevant texts are collated ... ; and the first to use the Hinman collating machine. This edition has set the standards for all other editions now in progress or planned for the future. The project was born in a conversation between William Charvat and Roy Harvey Pearce at Ohio State in 1960, when it was observed that the centenary of Hawthorne's death was to be 1964." Volume I, The Scarlet letter, was published in 1962. Volume XXIII, Miscellaneous prose and verse, was published in 1994.
