    John Hinsdale Thompson collection of James Joyce materials

    Manuscripts

    The collection contains original James Joyce material with additional material concerning James Joyce scholarship and John Hinsdale Thompson's collecting of the James Joyce material. The first series of the collection contains 73 original items (1901-1938, mssHM 41118-41190), either written by or about James Joyce and include: Joyce's translation of Gerhart Hauptmann's Before sunrise; a corrected typescript of a portion of Penelope; and various poems. Also included are autograph letters by Joyce to various recipients, and the correspondence of Donald S. Friede concerning his publication and the copyright of Joyce's Work in progress. The second series includes 169 items of supporting material (1939-1973) which consists chiefly of correspondence between John Hinsdale Thompson, booksellers, and other Joyce scholars; the majority of these letters are addressed to Thompson. Also contains manuscripts, printer's material, printed material, and ephemera concerning Joyce scholarship.
