This series consists of drafts, correspondence, and printed material related to Frisch's lectures and publications. The material is arranged into seven subseries: Lectures and articles, Books and unpublished work, Book reviews, Obituaries and biographical writings, Requests for lectures and papers, Correspondence with publishers and editors, and Published material. Each section is presented in chronological order so far as this is ascertainable. A supplemental subseries has been added consisting of papers given by Ulla Frisch after the main body of papers.

The Lectures and articles, C.1-54, consist of drafts and related correspondence. See also Series E for scripts of talks on the radio. Books and unpublished work, C.55-76, also consists of drafts and related correspondence. Book reviews are to be found at C.76. Many of the Obituaries and biographical writings, C.77-89, are additional to those listed in the Bibliography, Biographical Memoirs of Fellows of the Royal Society, 27, 306.

Requests for lectures and papers, C.90-101, consists of correspondence from universities, industrial firms, scientific societies, Jewish organisations, schools and colleges, some of which is accompanied by a little background information. A note is given of any material of particular scientific or personal interest, and significant correspondence is indexed. For invitations to give lectures abroad, see Series E.

The Correspondence with publishers and editors, C.102-133, is mainly with editors or representatives of firms or newspapers, but there are a few exchanges with individuals. The content relates to Frisch's own publications (articles, books, translations), written or proposed, and to requests for advice or comment by him on material submitted for publication by others. Correspondence relating to specific identified writings by Frisch may be found with the relevant manuscript drafts in C.1-89. This material provides information on many book proposals that were never realised.

C.134-139, Published material, includes an incomplete set of reprints of Frisch's published papers, presented in the order adopted for the Bibliography accompanying the Memoir by R.E. Peierls (Biographical Memoirs of Fellows of the Royal Society, 27, 1981) at C.138-139. Several items in the sequence C.1-89 are omitted from or additional to this Bibliography.

C.140-167 consist of supplemental papers given by Ulla Frisch after the main body of papers. C.140-147 are drafts by Otto Frisch, including his first published paper, C.148-163 are drafts by others, C.164-165 are unidentified drafts, and C.166-167 are published papers.

This section contains very few items: the bulk of J. J. Thomson's correspondence held by Trinity College is to be found in the second accrual of his papers, THMJ II/H/1-14.

Personal correspondence 1894-1974, papers concerning Trinity College and Cambridge University 1907-66, academical notes 1920-50, lectures 1921-62, publications 1914-64, papers relating to The Directorate of Military Operations 1918-19, The League of Nations 1918-32, J R M Butler's political life 1918-24, Civil Affairs Staff Centre 1943-44, Papers of George Butler 1794-1850, papers of Henry Montagu Butler 1846-1918, papers of Gordon Kerr Montagu Butler 1910-16, papers of Nevile Montagu Butler 1910-67

The majority of the papers in this collection are flysheets (A) dealing with issues debated before the Senate, and as such form a valuable insight into subjects and opinions considered important in late nineteenth century Cambridge. Many of these, such as the accounts of various graces on compulsory Greek or reforms to the Classical Tripos, are concerned with Burn's personal academic preoccupations, but it is a measure of his versatility and dedication to the University as a whole that this collection also contains papers written by him on such questions as the plausibility of introducing degrees in Science and the necessity of widening the Cam to facilitate rowing. Also included are papers on matters of national importance, such as the University Tests Bill and the Oxford Declaration, both of which caused heated debate in the Senate and were of particular interest to Burn as a clergyman.

Another interesting feature of this collection is that the authors of many of the flysheets to be found within it are such important University figures of the last century. Jebb, Jackson and Sidgwick, amongst many others, were concerned with fighting their corner on various issues that came before the Senate, and it is through their opinions that it is possible to glimpse the origins of many events and practices (the building of the New Museums or the establishment of the Historical Tripos, to name just two) that became a reality.

The remainder of this collection consists of mark books (B) for the Classical Tripos 1862, when Burn was an examiner, and miscellaneous items (C) preserved along with the collection. The mark books are of particular importance for those interested in the history of Classics at Cambridge, as well as in its main figures: Jebb, for example, is described in a note by Burn as being better at historical prose than philosophical. Amongst the miscellanea are also items which betray the interests of Burn, but also have a much wider appeal, such as architectural plans of excavations at Rome, and accounts of lectures on Roman Art given at Rugby School.

See the attached finding aid for a more detailed description.

Papers relating to psychical research and other occult subjects, the Perrott Fellowship, the Arthur Stanley Eddington Memorial Lecture, and the Swedish language, with group photographs relating to Dulwich College.

Although there is some useful autobiographical material including diaries and family correspondence among the papers, the bulk of the material relates to Broad's working life. The detailed faculty lectures, many of which were later published, are preserved as are other lectures that Broad gave from time to time. Notes of the works of others are also among the papers, with Broad's comments, but little of Broad's own notes in preparation for his lectures and publications survive. There are also eight undated notebooks on subjects related to psychical research. Additionally, there are a few classical papers of Arthur Verrall, which Broad was presumably given due to the SPR connection with the family and some papers of John Chadwick on mathematical and philosophical subjects

The papers consist of over 2000 letters written to Henry Arthur Bright from friends, colleagues, and family members arranged in alphabetical order. Principal correspondents include Robert Brook Aspland, William Robert Brownlow, William Henry Channing, Lord Charlemont, William George Clark, Sir Reginald John Cust, Charles Milnes Gaskell, Lord Houghton (130 letters), Charles Eliot Norton, and Spencer Perceval (b 1828). There are also letters from Hungerford Crewe, and the Hawthorne family, but not Nathaniel himself: Nathaniel Hawthorne's wife Sophia, and children Una and Julian. Letters to Bright's family consist mainly of photocopies.

The last box contains a few miscellaneous items: notes, an essay on ''The Characteristic Difference between Ancient and Modern Civilization' which was awarded the English prize at Trinity College, and a bound volume containing proofs of Lord Houghton's 'Notes on "Endymion"' and Houghton's introduction to the works of Walter Savage Landor in Thomas Humphry Ward's 'The English Poets 1880-1918, Vol. IV, The Nineteenth Centry: Wordsworth to Rossetti', accompanied by a letter and a note from Lord Houghton.

Not including their correspondence.
