Unbound manuscript; title and text in German. Written under Francis Lieber's pseudonym Arnold Franz. Title also includes the phrase: "With beautiful and explanatory woodcuts added."
This series includes both bound volumes and loose pages. The material includes very early school exercises, manuscripts, short stories, and plays, some of which are in German and written under Francis Lieber's pseudonym Arnold Franz. The series also includes commonplace books, lectures, research notes, remarks, and catalogs; the subjects include travel, secession, education, Shakespeare, and slavery. Some of the material contains various penciled notes and locations, in unknown hands, made by earlier Huntington catalogers; also, some of the volumes and material are in very fragile condition, and will need to be handled carefully.
In German. Includes a covering letter from Matilda (Oppenheimer) Lieber, July 23, 1827, forwarding these copies of Lieber's letters to his parents. Francis Lieber's letters to his wife are written in both German and English.
