The Angell papers document the life and professional activities of a renowned sociologist and university teacher. The collection dates from 1923 to 1984 though the bulk of the papers fall within the period of the 1940s through the 1960s. The collection has been arranged into five series: Biographical information/autobiographical essays; Correspondence; Books, articles, and other writings; Organizational Affiliations; and Topical Files.
The Correspondence series dates from 1921 to 1979 and illuminates Angell's professional relations with University of Michigan colleagues and with other sociologists. A selective inventory of Angell correspondents has been prepared and is appended to this finding aid. Correspondents include Kenneth Boulding, Charles Horton Cooley, Clarence Cook Little, Robert M. MacIver, Robert K. Merton, and Lewis Mumford.
