| | Creator: | Calvert, Amelia Smith, b. 1876 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Amelia Smith Calvert diaries, 1912-1929
| | | | Dates: | 1912-1929 | | | | Abstract: | These two diaries were kept by Amelia Smith Calvert on trips to Europe with her husband Philip Powell Calvert. They record little scientific information, although there is mention of some of the entomologists and scientists whom they met (e.g. Professor Robert Newstead of University of Liverpool). In general, her observations are those of a literate and passionate sightseer who records travel events in great detail. The British diary (1912) includes descriptions of Liverpool, Edinburgh, York, Lincoln, Cambridge, Oxford, and London, and observations of the entomological specimens they saw in London. The Europe diary (1929) includes descriptions of Antwerp, Brussels, Amsterdam, Lucerne, Venice (of particular interest), Padua, and Milan. There is a description of P.P. Calvert's examination of insect specimens in the collection of Baron de Sélys-Longchamps in the Institut royal des sciences naturelles de Belgique. | | | | Call #: | Mss.B.C13 | | | | Extent: | 2.0 Volume(s) | | | | Sections: |

| | Creator: | Castle, William E., (William Ernest), 1867-1962 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | William E. Castle Papers
| | | | Dates: | Bulk, 1950-1961 | | | | Abstract: | A modest Midwesterner who became one of the most influential geneticists of the first half of the 20th century, William E. Castle spent his career at Harvard and the University of California working on patterns of inheritance in mice, horses, and a variety of other mammalian taxa. An early proponent of Mendelian theory, Castle was director of the Bussey Institution at Harvard for almost thirty years, helping to train a number of important geneticists.
The Castle Papers contain one linear foot of correspondence dating primarily from the period after Castle's "retirement" to Berkeley in 1936 until his death in 1962, dealing almost exclusively with his research on horse breeding and the inheritance of coat coloration in horses. Castle's correspondence with his former student L. C. Dunn is an exception, focusing on mouse genetics and ranging to a variety of topics from the conduct of scientific research during the Second World War to Castle's interests in the early history of genetics. | | | | Call #: | Mss.Ms.Coll.14 | | | | Extent: | 1.0 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

| | Creator: | Catholic Church | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Detmar Basse Müller Book of Hours
| | | | Dates: | Circa 1475 | | | | Abstract: | Books of hours were among the most common devotional texts of the Middle Ages. Produced throughout western Europe until the early 16th century, books of hours were important status items, often elaborately illuminated, that might be tailored to the specific tastes of well-heeled clients to reflect interests in particular saints or to incorporate other elements of their personal lives and religious, political, or social commitments.
Although the specifics of its origin remain uncertain, the APS Book of Hours is organized in a fairly typical fashion. Beginning with a calendar specifying feast days and other holy days, the book includes readings from the gospels, prayers (Obsecro te, O Intemerata), the Hours of the Virgin, the Hours of the Cross, the seven penitential psalms (6, 31, 37, 50, 101, 129), the litanies and prayers, the office for the dead, and additional prayers devoted to Saints Barbara, Anthony, Margaret, and Sebastian. Each of the 22 sections begins with a full-page illustration, many with additional vignettes. An additional vignette of a figure of death is included in the office of the dead. The volume was donated to the APS by Detmar Basse-Müller in 1806. | | | | Call #: | Mss.264.02.R66 | | | | Extent: | 1.0 Volume(s) | | | | Sections: |

| | | | Dates: | ca. 1475? | | | | Abstract: | Books of hours were among the most common devotional texts of the Middle Ages. Produced throughout western Europe until the early 16th century, books of hours were important status items, often elaborately illuminated, that might be tailored to the specific tastes of well-heeled clients to reflect interests in particular saints or to incorporate other elements of their personal lives and religious, political, or social commitments.
Although the illuminated pages have been removed from this book of hours, the gift of Timothy Matlack in 1811, it remains an elegant and ornate manuscript, with initials and line fillers in prominent gilt, red, and blue. Only one page remains from the calendar (the last), however many of the major elements of the book can be identified, including the prayers to the Virgin, the Stabat Mater Dolorosa and stations of the cross, the penitential psalms, litanies, and prayers, and the office of the dead. | | | | Call #: | Mss.264.02.R662 | | | | Extent: | 1.0 Volume(s) | | | | Sections: |

| | Creator: | Center for History of Physics (American Institute of Physics) | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | History of Modern Astrophysics Collection
| | | | Dates: | 1849-1979 | | | | Abstract: | During the mid- to late-1970s, the American Institute of Physics sponsored a project to conduct oral history interviews documenting the recent history of astrophysics, eventually accumulating over 400 hours of fully transcribed and edited audio tapes. The project organizers placed a particular emphasis on documenting the various subdisciplines of cosmology and astronomical spectroscopy.
The History of Modern Astrophysics Collection is an important resource for the history of astrophysics in the latter half of the twentieth century. The collection is arranged in two series, the first consisting of transcripts of 52 interviews of 46 astrophysicists recorded between 1976 and 1979 by members of the Center for the History of Physics at the American Institute of Physics. The second series consists of 65 reels of microfilm of significant sets of correspondence for individual astrophysicists. The original oral history tape recordings are housed at AIP. | | | | Call #: | Mss.Ms.Coll.13 | | | | Extent: | 2.0 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

| | Creator: | Cercle des Philadelphes du Cap François | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Cercle des Philadelphes du Cap François Collection
| | | | Dates: | 1784-1787 | | | | Abstract: | Founded in Cap François, Saint Domingue (now Haiti) in August 1785, the Cercle des Philadelphes was one of the most prestigious colonial learned societies of the Ancien Regime. During its brief seven year existence, the Cercle pursued an agenda of promoting improvements in agriculture, manufactures, the arts and sciences, published five volumes of memoirs, and established correspondence with their peers in the American Philosophical Society and other learned societies. Their foreign membership included both Benjamin Franklin and Benjamin Rush.
The Cercle des Philadelphes Collection is a small, but important assemblage of documents relating to French colonial science. Each of the documents is associated with Louis Narcisse Baudry de Lozières, the first president of the Cercle, including three certificates appointing him to office, and two important addresses. The first of these appears to be his opening remarks to the Cercle at its first public meeting on Aug. 15, 1784. The second is an early, but undated document outlining the organization of the Cercle and its aims. | | | | Call #: | Mss.506.7294.C33.1 | | | | Extent: | 0.25 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

| | Creator: | Chargaff, Erwin | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Erwin Chargaff Papers
| | | | Dates: | 1929-1992 | | | | Abstract: | A biochemist at Columbia University, Erwin Chargaff discovered the base-pairing regularities or "complementarity relationships" of nucleic acids that provided one of the key steps in developing a structural model for DNA. During his long career, Chargaff is credited with conclusively falsifying the tetranucleotide hypothesis; demonstrating the existence of a large number of DNA species; and creating the first descriptions of hypochromicity, hyperchromicity, and the denaturation of a DNA. In addition, Chargaff conducted important research on blood coagulation, lipids and lipoproteins, the metabolism of amino acids and inositol, and the biosynthesis of phosphotransferases. He retired to emeritus status in 1974 and remained active in research almost to the time of his death in June 2002.
The Chargaff Papers are organized into ten series: I. Correspondence, 1931-1992; Ia. Correspondence, 1949-2002; IIa. Grants, 1930-1982; IIb. Subject Files, 1940-1984; IIc.

| | Creator: | Charnay, Désiré, 1828-1915 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Abbot-Charnay Photograph Collection
| | | | Dates: | 1859-1882 | | | | Abstract: | A traveler, archaeologist, and photographer, Désiré Charnay (1828-1915) was one of the most important early expeditionary photographers. During his tours of Yucatan, Oaxaca, and Chiapas in 1858-1860 and 1880-1886, Charnay became one of the first to use photography in documenting the great Meso-American archaeological sites and to make ethnographic photographs of indigenous Mexicans. His major publications
Cités et Ruines Américaines (Paris, 1862) and
Les Anciennes Villes du Nouveau Monde (Paris, 1885) are important transitional works to the later scientific archaeology of Alfred Maudslay.
The collection of photographs taken by Desire Charnay are representative of the range of images he took of Meso-American archaeological sites during three tours of Mexico in 1858-1860 and 1880-1886. Although some of the images have suffered an unfortunate degree of fading, they convey the power and fascination that these sites held for Charnay and his contemporaries, and include some of the best early examples of the use of photography in the documentation of Mexican archaeology. The collection includes 123 images of the sites at Tula, Teotihuacan, Iztaccihuatl, Chichen Itza, Comalcalco, and Palenque, of archaeological specimens held at the Museum of Mexico, and of landscape and villages in Yucatan, Chiapas, and Oaxaca, as well as a series of Lacandon, Mayan, Mixtec, and Yucatec "racial types." | | | | Call #: | Mss.913.72.Ab23 | | | | Extent: | 2.0 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

| | | | Dates: | 1879-1881 | | | | Abstract: | The United States Indian School at Carlisle, Pa., was founded by Gen. Richard Henry Pratt in 1879, and served as a model for government boarding schools for Indians until its closure in 1918. Over 10,000 students enrolled at the Carlisle Training School during its 39 years, where, separated from their native cultures, the students were prepared for work in industrial and manual labor and socialized into "civilized" life. Given new white names to replace their Indian ones, the students were prohibited from speaking their native languages, were instructed in Christianity, and were fed, clothed, and housed under strict military discipline.
The 27 photographs in the Speck-Choate Photograph Collection were taken by J. N. Choate, a local commercial photographer in Carlisle, Pa., and collected by the anthropologist Frank G. Speck. Choate advertised "Photographs of all the Indian Chiefs that have visited the Indian Training School at Carlisle Barracks, also of children in native and school costumes" and were intended to document the benefits of civilization that the school brought to Indians. Typical images include "before and after" shots of students in native dress and school uniforms, the school band, and shots of the students at work in the saddle shop and making shoes. Choate also took a number of images of visiting chiefs in traditional dress, including the Lakota chief Spotted Tail, and the Cheyennes Man on Cloud and Mad Wolf. One photograph depicts Richard Henry Pratt seated with Quaker supporters. Among the tribes represented are the Lakota, Laguna, Cheyenne, Creek, Lipan, and Pueblo. | | | | Call #: | Mss.B.Sp3c | | | | Extent: | 0.25 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

| | | | Dates: | 1745-1848 | | | | Abstract: | George Clymer was a successful merchant, well-known politician, and a generous philanthropist, but is today most famous for being a signer of the Declaration of Independence. As a proponent of independence, he joined various local political committees including six of the seven Philadelphia resistance committees. From there, he entered the national political arena and in 1776 was elected to the Second Continental Congress where he signed the Declaration of Independence.
The George Clymer Collection is a small one and not reflective of his varied pursuits. There are twenty-seven documents, most of which are not signed by Clymer; those that are signed by Clymer are dated between May 3, 1800 and January 22, 1813. The items represent not Clymer's political activities but his ordinary legal and real estate transactions. | | | | Call #: | Mss.B.C625 | | | | Extent: | 0.25 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

The correspondence in the collection dates primarily to the 1960s-70s, when Mildred Cohn worked at the University of Pennsylvania and at the Institute for Cancer Research in Philadelphia. The letters are professional in content, discussing biochemistry, molecular biology, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments (with significant material on the NMR Facility for Biomedical Studies at Carnegie-Mellon University). The letters also concern lectures and participation in conferences and symposia, and there is much relating to recommendations for students and colleagues for positions and promotions. There is little material, however, reflecting Dr. Cohn's interest and involvement with the issue of women in science. | | | | Call #: | Mss.Ms.Coll.17 | | | | Extent: | 21.0 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |

In his text, Condorcet tries to sell the idea of a scientific academy and all its advantages, and he treats questions of academic structure and organization at length. Also, what is most important, Condorcet makes the argument for the academy as an independent center of a professional scientific career" (McClellan 1977:241). Contains also an extract from the [minutes?] of the academie des sciences, May 12, 1785, consisting of a report of committee on this article. | | | | Call #: | Mss.506.C75 | | | | Extent: | 1.0 Volume(s) | | | | Sections: |

| | Creator: | Couch, Jonathan, 1789-1870 | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | Jonathan Couch Papers
| | | | Dates: | 1839-1891 | | | | Abstract: | In many ways, Jonathan Couch was a prototype of the Victorian provincial naturalist, a trained physician whose eclectic, but intensely local interests ran from the life sciences to geology, Cornish folk beliefs, and local history. His major works included a three-volume translation of
Pliny's Natural History (London, 1847-1849) published by the Wernerian Club of London,
The History of Polperro (Truro, 1871), and the exhaustive four-volume
A History of the Fishes of the British Islands (London, 1862-1868).
The remnants of a wide-ranging mind, the Couch Papers contain a sampling of correspondence, rough drafts of articles, and notes on a variety of topics of interest to the Cornish naturalist and antiquarian, Jonathan Couch. The bulk of the correspondence relates to Couch's translation of Pliny's Natural History, published by the Wernerian Club of London between 1847 and 1849. The notes are highly diverse, but include some systematic descriptions of fishes, probably used in his
A History of the Fishes of the British Islands and notes Cornish folk beliefs. Of particular interest are his "Notes connected with instinct and reason" and three manuscripts relating to evolutionism: "Enquiry into the circumstances...," "On the history and development of man," and "The Natural History of the Creation of the World, with its changes to the subsidence of the flood and Noah." | | | | Call #: | Mss.B.C831 | | | | Extent: | 1.0 Linear feet | | | | Sections: |
