Albert Schweitzer And His Nuclear Concerns Seen Today, Rhena Schweitzer Miller

This article is adapted from a talk given by Mrs. Rhena Schweitzer Miller in which she talks about her father, Albert Schweitzer.

Theology For Freedom And Responsibility: Rudolf Bultmann's Views On Church And State, Antje B. Lemke
Theology For Freedom And Responsibility: Rudolf Bultmann's Views On Church And State, Antje B. Lemke
The Courier
This article is adapted from an address that Antje Lemke gave on the life and contributions of her father, Rudolph Bultmann. He was a prominent Protestant theologian, having grown up before Hitler's rise to power, and Bultmann witnessed how the Nazis manipulated the Church to try to gain support for their devious political goals. He joined the voices that spoke out against this fusion of national corruption with the Church. After World War II, he became involved in debates concerning political and liberation theology.
Common Cause: The Antislavery Alliance Of Gerrit Smith And Beriah Green, Milton C. Sernett
Common Cause: The Antislavery Alliance Of Gerrit Smith And Beriah Green, Milton C. Sernett
The Courier
The Gerrit Smith Papers in the manuscript collections of the George Arents Research Library at Syracuse University are an indispensable resource for scholars interested in American social reform. Given to the University in 1928 by Gerrit Smith Miller, a grandson, the col
lection reveals that the abolition of slavery dominated the Madison County philanthropist's reform interests from the mid-1830s to the Civil War. Of Gerrit Smith's numerous antislavery correspondents, including such prominent reformers as William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips, and Theodore Dwight Weld, none maintained a more regular and extensive epistolary relationship than Beriah Green, upstate New York's most radical …
My First Book—Treasure Island, Robert Louis Stevenson
My First Book—Treasure Island, Robert Louis Stevenson
The Courier
This article (after a brief introduction by Mark F. Weimer of Syracuse University) first appeared in McClure's Magazine in 1894. It is the now-rare preface to the classic novel Treasure Island, in which Robert Louis Stevenson comments on how the novel sprang from a map he painted with the assistance of an imaginative schoolboy while recuperating from an illness. A holograph manuscript of the preface is located in the Syracuse University Libraries.

The Stephen Crane Collection At Syracuse University, Edward Lyon
The Courier
This article gives a general overview of the items contained in the Stephen Crane collections at the Syracuse University Libraries. The article divides the collection into letters, manuscripts, presentation inscriptions and annotations, books from Crane's library, and memorabilia. A large portion of the collection is drawn from the Schoberlin collection.
Schoberlin's Annotated Copy Of War Is Kind, Donald P. Vanouse
Schoberlin's Annotated Copy Of War Is Kind, Donald P. Vanouse
The Courier
This article explains the controversy that surrounds one of the copies (the Schoberlin copy to be exact) of War Is Kind by Stephen Crane that is contained in Syracuse University's Special Collections. Inaccurate dates, strange annotations, and odd formatting are some of the features that make the copy unique.
Searching For Stephen Crane: The Schoberlin Collection, James B. Colvert
Searching For Stephen Crane: The Schoberlin Collection, James B. Colvert
The Courier
This article meticulously recounts the building of the Schoberlin collection, which sought to gather material written by the American novelist Stephen Crane. The task was quite formidable, as competing collectors tried to beat each other to primary sources. The article also points out facts and discrepencies that the sources contain, giving a complex but interesting story about the ill-fated author.
New Stephen Crane Letters In The Schoberlin Collection, Paul Sorrentino, Stanley Wertheim
New Stephen Crane Letters In The Schoberlin Collection, Paul Sorrentino, Stanley Wertheim
The Courier
This article recreates several letters written by American novelist Stephen Crane, unique to the Schoberlin Collection. By themselves the letters and inscriptions that are reproduced here do not form a coherent narrative; consequently, brief headnotes and footnotes supply the reader with sufficient detail to understand the context of each document.
Newly Discovered Writings Of Mary Helen Peck Crane And Agnes Elizabeth Crane, Paul Sorrentino
Newly Discovered Writings Of Mary Helen Peck Crane And Agnes Elizabeth Crane, Paul Sorrentino
The Courier
Although several members of Stephen Crane's immediate family were writers, scholars know little about their work. Thomas A. Gullason
published writings by Crane's parents and brother Jonathan Townley, but other items remain to be studied and possibly printed. Fortunately, Melvin H. Schoberlin preserved holographs and transcripts of documents by Crane's sister, Agnes, and mother, Mary Helen, that further reveal the family's interest in writing. Because the transcripts, which Schoberlin copied from materials once owned by Crane's niece Edith, are unique to the Schoberlin Collection, researchers cannot verify their accuracy. As scholars examine the Collection, though, they will find that he …
The "Lost" Newspaper Writings Of Stephen Crane, Thomas A. Gullason
The "Lost" Newspaper Writings Of Stephen Crane, Thomas A. Gullason
The Courier
This article details some of the little-known articles written by Stephen Crane when he was a journalist. He often wrote stories about the local New York society that got him fired from several papers, but served him in creating material for his novels, especially Maggie. The stories are infused with Crane's wit and uncanny sense of irony.

Preface: A Special Stephen Crane Issue, David H. Stam
Preface: A Special Stephen Crane Issue, David H. Stam
The Courier
One of the great pleasures of coming to a new library, as I did to Syracuse last March, is the joy of discovering particularly strong but unexpected collections. The Leopold von Ranke holdings, the Margaret Bourke,White collection, and the Belfer Audio Archives are just a few of the great strengths of the Syracuse University Libraries and its special collections.
