GB 0432 Newman correspondence Birmingham Oratory This catalogue was digitised by The National Archives as part of the National Register of Archives digitisation project NRA 27809 JA The National Archives THE WRITINGS AND PAPERS l OF JOHN HENRY NEWMAN A BRIEF PRELIMINARY CHECKLIST compiled in connection with his Cause for Beatification January 1980 A brief list of all Newman1s published writings is given. Firstly, the titles of all his works which Newman edited into the Uniform Edition are given. Details of the first and subsequent dates of publication are not given but can be found in the Chronological list which is appended. A list of all posthumously published material is the second part of the breakdown. Lastly come brief details of the ephemeral material which was not reprinted in the Uniform edition or elsewhere. Newman's unpublished papers are numerous. Details of his correspondence are not given as all letters which are known have been collected and are being published in The Letters and Diaries of John Henry Newman. All references are to the Archives of the Birmingham Oratory as all known papers, besides letters, are in these Archives with two exceptions and copies of these two papers are kept with the rest of the material at Birmingham. For convenience the list has been subdivided into nine general divisions. Some material (financial reviews, proofs etc) has not been individually itemised as it contains little more than an occasional note by Newman. It has to be said that few of these papers are of any importance for knowledge of Newman or the issue of his sanctity and even these few add hardly anything to the picture to be gained from his published works and letters. All are available for consultation. PUBLISHED MATERIAL I.
