Scrapbook on Italy during World War II, 1943 July - 1944 March

 File — Box: OB-1, Folder: 2

Scope and Contents note

From the Collection:

The papers of historian, Frederic C. Lane, primarily span the years 1943-1984 during which he was teaching at Johns Hopkins and conducting extensive research for his writings on the history of Venice in the 14th and 15th centuries. There are some materials dating from 2001.

The papers include Lane's holographic notes for lectures, journal articles, texts, and some annotated typescript for published items. Included also is extensive correspondence with students and colleagues. There are no personal items in the collection. The papers are almost entirely related to Lane's scholarly interest in the economic history of Venice and other city-states during the period of the Renaissance.
