Scope and Content

Manuscript of the collection. This consists of: typescript preliminaries supplied by Carcanet; typescript introduction by Eric Rhode; and the essays themselves either in typescript, photocopied from their original journal publications, or extracted from the original journals themselves (hence the wide covering dates for the manuscript). Stokes revised a number of the pieces himself in blue ink, and Schmidt has added printing instructions throughout. The essay 'On Being Taken out of Oneself' is missing from the manuscript; this is with the Stokes-related correspondence at CPA/2/1/70/70; it was removed from the manuscript for Eric Rhode to add footnote numbers and it was not subsequently returned to the book file. The correspondence file also includes the volume's jacket blurb (at CPA/2/1/70/41-42).

Arrangement

The archivist has added running numbering in the top left corner of each sheet, to distinguish this from original foliation.
