Recent Gifts

Arthur M. Eastman '40 recently donated a facsimile of the first folio of Shakespeare, the first collected edition of his plays, published in 1623. This 1968 facsimile, edited by Charlton Hinman, is a most welcome gift, since it is now no longer available. Eastman presented the gift in honor of Professor Emeritus Andrew Bongiorno, the inscription reading: "In honor of the rarest of teachers, Andrew Bongiorno."

Leonard and Lisa Baskin have given the library the beautifully illustrated 1970 Gehenna Press edition of Goethe's West-Ostlicher Divan/West-Eastern Divan.

John McClellan of Cleveland Heights, Ohio has donated his personal collection of 683 volumes in the fields of philosophy and logic.
