Translations of ancient scientific and mathematical treatises by
Professors John G. Winter and L.C. Karpinski are also to be found in two
other volumes of this series, while certain studies in Roman Law and
administration by Professors A.E. Boak and J.H. Drake and a discussion
of "Greek Themes in Modern Musical Settings," by Professor A.A. Stanley,
bring the volumes issued down to the present time. Accompanying this
series are a number of Humanistic Papers, including a discussion and
symposium on the value of classical training in American education, and
a biography of Professor George S. Morris by Professor R.M. Wenley. Two
volumes in a scientific series have also appeared: "The Circulation and
Sleep," by Professor J.A. Shepard of the Department of Psychology, and
"Studies in Divergent Series and Summability," by Professor W.B. Ford of
the Department of Mathematics. Two volumes of the Publications of the
Astronomical Observatory, dealing with the spectroscopic investigations
for which the Observatory is now particularly well equipped, have also
appeared. Also to be noted are four numbers of a series of Publications
by the Physical Laboratory and seventy-two "Occasional Papers from the
Museum of Zooelogy," as well as four volumes in a "University of Michigan
Historical Series," including "A History of the Presidents' Cabinets,"
"The English Rule in Gascony, 1199-1259," "The Color Line in Ohio," and
"The Senate and Treaties (1789-1817)," (the last by Professor J.R.
Hayden), and two volumes in a series of Economic Studies. A "History of
the Chemical Laboratory," by Professor E.D. Campbell, should also be
mentioned.
From time to time there have been issued compilations of the
publications of members of the University Faculties. These have shown an
ever-increasing body of books, articles, and reviews which may be taken
as another concrete evidence of the activity of the members of the
Faculty in their various fields. The first two of these lists were
issued through the medium of a little informative sheet issued for the
University for some years by the Alumni Association, known as the
_News-Letter_. The data were far from complete but the published total
was not unimpressive. Later the University Library took up the work,
while the last two lists of this character were made by Dean A.H. Lloyd,
of the Graduate School, as regular University Bulletins. These cover the
period from July 1, 1909 to June 30, 1919 and include over one hundred
volumes exclusive of ordinary handbooks and textbooks. These two lists
give some 1,700 titles.
