THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE. PENNSYLVANIA
Pailee Library
Receives Gift
Of 200 Volumes
A collection of 200 volumes
from the estate of Samuel Put
nam, noted writer and historian,
has been given to the Eattee
library by Mrs. Putnam and her
son, Hilary.
The greater part of the gift
is devoted to Brazilian litera
ture, Mr. Putnam’s special in
terest, and contains some of the
materials used for his history of
Brazilian writing, “Marvelous
Journey.” There are also Span
ish, Italian, and French litera
tures.
Mr. Putnam was equally fam
ous as a translator and an or
iginal writer. His most famous
works were “Francois Rabelair,
Man of the Renaissance,” “Mar
guerite of Navarre,” and “Paris
Was Our Mistress.” His recent
translation of Don Quixote has
received praise from critics for
the quality of the translation
and the literary style.
Most of Mr. Putnam’s library
was giyen to the University of
Pennsylvania and it was through
the university that the Pattee
Library was able to acquire this
portion. Commenting on the gift,
Dr. Robert J. Clements, head of
the department of Romance lan
guages, said, “Samuel. Putnam
once praised a Renaissance fig
ure by remarking that ‘his erudi
tion did not smell of the study.’
Putnam was such a scholar
himself. His colorful and personal
writings in history and biography
avoided pedantry, but were
nevertheless the product of pa
tient documentation and research.
His own library was thus a
scholar’s library, rich in defini
tive editions and reference
works.”
