Scope and Contents note
From the Series:
Series I. Correspondence consists of personal and academic correspondence. Of particular interest are letters from the 1940s during World War II, and from the post-war period in which Dr. Lear expresses concern over the future of the liberal arts as changes take place in the Institute's curriculum to accommodate new national priorities. Correspondence in Boxes 3 and 4 reflects Dr. Lear's activities both in the Department of History and university-wide. Book Orders (Box 4) record the establishment from 1928 of a core collection of books in medieval history, including works on Roman and Germanic law.
