Next, I’d like to thank my thesis advisors, Dr. Loehlin and Dr. Kornhaber, who absolutely made this thesis feel possible and necessary. Without the Winedale program and the support of that community, this thesis would not exist. I am forever grateful to the bonds forged in that old barn. Thank you, Dr. Lang, for helping me to find the perfect intersection of theatre, archives, and museums, and without whom I never would have started this thesis. Dr. Colleary, thank you for encouraging my enthusiasm for the archives, and especially for coming in at the eleventh hour to remind me why I cared about this topic in the first place. Lastly, I’d like to thank Linda Mayhew and the entire LAH program for giving me a place and a home in this program. -

Guidelines for Using the Annotated Bibliography of Prose Narratives Adapted for Children from Shakespeare' s Plays 1807-1998 Scope of Bibliography: The Annotated Bibliography seeks to document different English versions of prose stories, retold from Shakespeare' s plays for the purpose of introducing children to Shakespeare, and published as children' s literature, including the nineteenth century chapbooks and penny-dreadful magazines. Anything that falls out of this category, i.e. text-books, theatre-guides and adult-books, will not be included. However, Lambs' tales were originally written for children. Although some editions of Lambs' tales were published as adults' books, they have been treated as children' s books, simply because they contain illustrations. -

Report of the Librarian
216 American Antiquarian Society [Oct., REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN "My library was dukedom large enough. " —Tempest, i:2 HEN Joseph's brethren came to his adopted W country during the seven lean years, they were made happy by discovering an abundance of food stored up for their need. And so it is with the historians and college professors from the far corners of the United States who flock to us all the year long, but especially during the summer vacation and the Christmas holidays, eager for our books and newspaper files, our manuscripts, maps and prints, for which they have hungered during the months when they had available only the less fortunately stored historical granaries of their various institutions. From Florida to Vancouver they have journeyed to Worcester in ever-increasing numbers to buy with their enthusiastic appreciation the rich grain of our histori- cal, biographical, and literary resources. As we watch them at their work, we cannot but share their enthu- siasm when they find here the varied materials they need for the scholarly work in which they are engaged. A Seventh Day Adventist historian from Washing- ton found our collections particularly rich in the rare periodicals, pamphlets, and broadsides relating to the Millerite delusion. A business historian was delighted with our wealth of editions of the early manuals of bookkeeping which he needed for his bibliography. A Yale graduate' student delved into our source material on the question of war guilt at the beginning of the Civil War. A Radcliffe graduate was made happy with an abundance of material on the practice of medicine in Colonial days. -
