Most of the letters in the collection were written to Winkler, but there is also correspondence exchanged by Wieland, Lavater, and Eliza von der Recke, famous in her time for her part in the exposure of Cagliostro. These letters came to Yale in as the gift of Mrs. Hamill, a niece of Winkler's granddaughter. The Speck Collection includes several vertical files of material that varies widely in value and rarity.
Pamphlets, mostly material about Goethe, are classed and catalogued as printed books. In addition there are files of illustrations, chiefly to works by Goethe; portraits of Goethe and his contemporaries; and views of places associated with Goethe. These files were built strictly as subject collections, and material of the most ephemeral character stands side by side with such items as Piranesi's views of Rome. Goethe's travels are documented by a small map collection. Playbills and programs relating to productions of Goethe's plays date from approximately to Files of Goethe postcards and of Goethe in advertising date primarily from the early decades of the twentieth century.
Much of this material was gathered by a private collector in Berlin, Karl Berg, and was purchased from his widow in The Speck Collection also contains a number of significant art works, such as the Oswald May portraits of Goethe and Wieland that hang in the Beinecke reading room, a bronze bust of Goethe by Christian Daniel Rauch, an engraving of the young Goethe by Johann Heinrich Lips, and an anonymous silhouette of the poet from A collection of about one hundred and fifty coins, medals, and medallions with likenesses of Goethe includes all but one struck during the poet's lifetime.
The manuscript dates from A special effort has been made over the last decades to add books by women writers of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, an area that had been neglected in the past. The German Literature Collection now has growing numbers of works by authors such as Sophie von La Roche, novelist, friend of Wieland, and mother of one of Goethe's first loves; Benedikte Naubert, a prolific author of historical novels; the novelist and journalist Therese Huber; Johanna Schopenhauer, mother of the philosopher, novelist, and a figure at the Weimar court; Karoline Pichler, novelist and literary hostess in Vienna; Sophie Mereau, poet, translator, and novelist, whose second husband was Clemens Brentano; Sophie Bernhardi von Knorring, sister of Ludwig Tieck and the author of poems, prose, and criticism; and the poet Luise Brachmann, who drowned herself in the River Saale over an unhappy love affair.
The German Collection is strong, although not complete, in first editions of the Romantic period. Literary editions from the second half of the nineteenth century, a growing collection at the Beinecke, are also present in Sterling Memorial Library, the result of the systematic purchase of German books begun at Yale during those decades.

In Kohut gave to Yale his father's extensive library of Judaica, the Alexander Kohut Memorial Collection, and in he donated his own Heine collection, which he had recently augmented by purchasing the Heine library of the Munich dramatist Arthur Ernst Rutra. The collection includes nearly all the printed works of Heine and representative manuscripts.
It is especially rich in French editions and includes a historically significant gathering of works by the oppositional German writers of the s and s, with whom Heine is associated: Oppenheimer presented to the German Literature Collection a group of volumes by and about the poet Rainer Maria Rilke. The collection is in mint condition and many of the volumes are specially bound. Oppenheimer — is better known as a collector of children's books, an interest he developed after his immigration to the United States in Purchased in , the Kurt Wolff papers consist of approximately 4, letters and some manuscripts from the files of the Kurt Wolff Verlag from the years — The longest files of correspondence are with Franz Werfel and with Walter Hasenclever, a friend from Wolff's student days in Leipzig.
In all, correspondents are represented in the collection. In and Christian Wolff donated his mother's papers, an archive that includes correspondence and other records from the early s through the s, reflecting Helen Wolff's distinguished career as an international publisher based in New York. The Beinecke Library's Hermann Broch archive is the world's principal repository of the manuscripts and correspondence of this exiled Austrian novelist and cultural critic.
Broch's road to New Haven, where he spent the last two years of his life, was itself the stuff of fiction. He was born in Vienna in , the eldest son of a wealthy industrialist.
His early training was in business and technology, and as a young man he successfully managed the family textile mills in Teesdorf, Lower Austria, rising to a position of considerable national prominence in the industry. Broch's true interests, however, were in literature, art, and philosophy, and after the sale of the family firm in the late s, he moved to Vienna and devoted himself wholly to writing.
He died in and is buried in Killingworth, Connecticut.

Broch bequeathed his papers to Yale, and this core collection has since been richly augmented by purchase and by gifts of manuscripts, letters, and memorabilia from his family and friends. Virtually all of his books and essays are represented in manuscript form, most of them in multiple drafts, and the collection includes unpublished fragments as well as juvenilia, chiefly of a philosophical and mathematical nature.
Broch was a letter-writer par excellence, and the archive contains a massive file of correspondence, both incoming and outgoing. Two recently added groups of central importance are his letters to fellow writer Franz Blei, and hundreds of letters to his second wife, Annemarie Meier-Graefe, from the s to The archive contains a number of autobiographical documents, one of them only recently unsealed. Broch's printed works including a full range of translations are supplemented by clippings and reviews that document the author's reception to the present. Irma Rothstein's bust of Broch and Peter Lipman-Wulf's death mask of the novelist are also part of the archive.
At the core of Yale's Thomas Mann holdings are nearly forty manuscripts given by Mann in for the purpose of establishing a collection. With the help and dedication of its advisor, Joseph W. Angell, the Mann Collection grew to include manuscript items, about four linear feet of correspondence and special files, and a large collection of printed materials by and about Mann. In , Yale purchased the major portion of Helen Lowe-Porter's Thomas Mann papers, including typescripts of her translations of essays and lectures by Mann and her English renditions of five of his novels, often accompanied by German typescripts, which were prepared under Mann's supervision and have occasional manuscript corrections.
Among the longer Mann correspondences held at Yale are the letters with Joseph Angell between and , the letters to Hermann J. Weigand between and and to Helen Lowe-Porter, — The letters to Agnes Meyer, numbering over three hundred, offer indispensable information on Mann's years in the United States. The bulk of Meyer's letters to Mann have apparently not been preserved. Mann's letters to Meyer, edited by Hans R.
Vaget, were published by Fischer Verlag in Nonprint materials in the Mann Collection include Esther Vance's oil portrait of the author, done at Princeton. There are also several photographs of Mann, one of them by Edward Steichen, dated The Beinecke Library holds a nearly complete collection of printed works by Thomas Mann, many of them signed by the author. A new era began for the Yale Collection of German Literature in when the Beinecke Library acquired about five thousand literary first editions and periodicals in German from the early twentieth century through about In , the German government awarded Mr.

The Expressionist authors present in the collection range from the well known, such as Trakl and Heym, to the barely remembered. An abbreviated list may suggest the scope: Special mention might be made of nine titles in the collection by Arthur Ernst Rutra, cited earlier as a Heine collector.
One of the books by Rutra in the Frick Collection--a volume of stories--has the author's handwritten dedication to Thomas Mann and stamps indicating that the book was confiscated from Mann's library by the Nazis. Beyond the Expressionist movement, the Frick Collection covers the s and s in depth, including not only the well-known authors of the period such as Heimito von Doderer 19 titles , but also many lesser-known writers whose books are rarely seen in contemporary editions, either because they were suppressed by the Nazis, or because they were Nazi collaborators whose works fell into disrepute after the war.
Among the latter is the playwright Hanns Johst 32 titles , who became head of literary academies under Goebbels. Many of the authors in the Frick Collection were victims of the Holocaust.
Traven, who died in Acapulco in 21 titles. In most cases, the Frick Collection includes postwar publications of authors whose careers continued after A few later authors are also represented, among them H. Leslie Willson at the University of Texas at Austin. The archive, with its correspondences, manuscripts, and graphic art, reflects his decades of activity as editor, literary scout, friend, advisor, and teacher. In a similar way, the Willson material documents the educated tastes of one connoisseur and scholar as they intersected with the copious literary output of the postwar decades.
Another focus of the library is the interaction of text and graphic arts, as in its extensive holdings of the output of the Eremiten Verlag founded in and its authors. While individual twentieth-century books are now being purchased on a regular basis, the German Literature Collection has had several opportunities to add nearly complete author collections of printed works. In , for instance, we purchased titles his complete oeuvre comprises about titles by Hermann Bahr — , an advocate of Modernism in turn-of-the-century Austria.
It seemed especially important to preserve these often extremely fragile works, few of which have been reprinted, perhaps because Bahr was vilified by the influential critic Karl Kraus. In , we purchased all the first editions of H. Adler, together with books he edited, anthologies to which he contributed, and offprints from periodicals, amounting to approximately items, all from the author's estate, many of the books with his annotations. Finally, in , we purchased a collection of over forty first editions by the poet and essayist Gottfried Benn, nearly his total output.
He served as a medical officer in both wars and afterwards returned to private practice in East Berlin.
