Provenance

The papers of Arthur Oncken Lovejoy were a bequest to the
University and were received in 1963.

Biographical Note

Arthur Oncken Lovejoy was born in Berlin, October 10. 1873, the son
of Wallace William Lovejoy, A Boston medical student studying in
Germany, and Sara Oncken Lovejoy, his German wife.  They family
returned to Boston in 1875, but Sara Lovejoy died shortly
thereafter.  Wallace Lovejoy married Emmeline Dutton in 1881 after
leaving the practice of medicine to assume a ministry in the
Episcopal church.

Arthur Lovejoy received his early education in schools in Ohio,
Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.  Following his graduation from the
Germantown, Pennsylvania Academy in 1891, the family moved to
Oakland, California.  Lovejoy entered the University of California
at Berkeley in 1891, his course of study emphasizing the humanities
and languages.  Under the influence of the philosopher George
Holmes Howison, Lovejoy's prime interest changed from religion to
philosophy.  He graduated in 1895 and entered Harvard where he
studied under Josiah Royce and William James.  He received the M.A.
in 1897 and studied at the Sorbonne, 1898-1899.

Lovejoy's career as a teacher of philosophy began at Stanford
University in 1899.  In 1901, he resigned in protest at the
dismissal of the economist and sociologist, E. A. Ross, and he was
afterwards a champion of academic freedom to university and college
faculties.   Lovejoy held teaching postions at Washington
University (1901-1907), Columbia (1907-1908), and the University of
Missouri (1908-1910) before coming to The Johns Hopkins University
in 1910.  He remained at Hopkins until his retirement in 1938.

During the early part of the century, Lovejoy published widely on
a number of subjects: the history of religion, the history of
philosophy, on pragmatism and realism, and on social and political
questions.  His concern for academic freedom led him in 1913 toward
the establishment of an organization which culminated in the
formation of the American Association of University Professors in
1915.

During World War I, he was active in the National Security League
and the YMCA.  After the war, Lovejoy turned his attention to
scholarship, particularly in philosophy and the history of ideas.
His 1933 William James Lectures at Harvard were published in 1936
as The Great Chain of Being.  He retired from Hopkins in 1938to
devote himself to his research.  He then became involved in the
planning of The Journal of the History of Ideas  which began
publication in 1940.  During World War !! Lovejoy was active
politically and socially, serving as administrator, editor and
writer for the Historical Service Board of the American Historical
Association and for the Universities Committee on Post-War
International Problems.  He was a member of the American Committee
for Cultural Freedom with a view to countering the Communist
threat.  He served as a member of the University of Maryland Board
of Regents from 1951-1955.  He also continued his scholarly work.
Gradually his health declined and his eyesight failed completely.
Arthur O. Lovejoy never married.  He died in Baltimore on December
30, 1962.

Scope and Content Note

The papers of Arthur O. Lovejoy span the years 1872 to 1963 and
include correspondence, manuscript notes for lectures, notebooks,
diaries, newspaper clippings, reports, speeches, photographs,
drafts, typescripts, galley proofs, and books owned and annotated
by Lovejoy.

Since 1963, when the papers were received by the University, the
collection has been reviewed, indexed, and arranged at various
times.  In 1963, Marjorie Nicolson, an associate of Professor
Lovejoy during 1923-26, examined the papers at the request of
Hopkins professor, George Boas.  She arranged some material into
envelopes and noted the contents of each envelope on the outside,
and that categorization has not been changed.  Miss Nicolson found
that the three main subjects of the papers were Nature,
Primitivism, and Romanticism, and that much of Lovejoy's research
had formed the basis of his many published articles.  Miss Nicolson
also observed that Lovejoy may have been planning a book or series
of articles on "The Romantic Theory of Knowledge," since some
material deals with that topic.     

During 1974-1975, Daniel J. Wilson prepared a detailed index of the
collection.  He listed the subject or title of each item in the
collection.  A complete index to the large amount of correspondence
was also prepared.  In 1979, the papers were filed into different
document boxes, but the original order that corresponds with
Wilson's index was retained.  In 1993, a container list was
prepared to correctly list the material and the box numbers.  The
papers are now arranged by series since the latest revision was
intended to follow Wilson's useful and complete index.  In a
general sense, the papers are arranged in the following order:
lecture notes, diaries and notebooks, writings, biographical
material, photographs, and correspondence.

In 2005, an envelope of five French manuscripts, previously omitted
from the container list, was found in the collection.  A note on the
envelope suggests Lovejoy purchased the humorous dialogues and
poems in book stalls along the Seine.  The manuscripts were placed in
Box 66 under "Purchased MSS."

The largest part of the collection filed in Boxes 1 to 59 contains
Lovejoy's notes on notable philosophers including Emerson, Locke,
Nietzche, and Santayana and his classroom lectures on the many
topics of Philosophy including Realism, Vitalism, Evolution, and
Meaning.  Correspondence, filed in Boxes 72 to 84 forms another
large segment of the collection.  Some biographical material and
family photographs are filed in Boxes 67-69 as well as Lovejoy's
reports and papers dealing with academic freedom and post-war
(World War II) problems. 

     For an analysis of the collection, see Marjorie Nicolson's
     letter, October 1963 in the Provenance File.
