Joseph E. Riehl Collection

Collection 255

Riehl, Joseph E. ( – ). Collection, 1999–2001, n.d.

10 inches

Dr. Joseph E. Riehl was a professor in the Department of English at the University of Southwestern Louisiana (now University of Louisiana at Lafayette). He did extensive research in collaboration with Dr. Edwin Marrs on the letters of Charles and Mary Lamb over the course of about 6 years working toward completion of three volumes (of the original six) which Dr. Marrs had published. The project came to a halt when Dr. Riehl became ill.

This collection consists of drafts of the manuscript titled "The Letters of Charles and Mary Ann Lamb, Volume IV" and transcribed letters (1818-1847) covering the Littell, Hodge, Mudd, and other families.

With the help of Leslie D. Schilling and Dean A. David Barry, Special Collections acquired this collection.
