3 | Author: | Hare, Robert, 1781-1858 | Requires cookie* | | Title: | Robert Hare papers, 1764-1858
| | | Dates: | 1764-1858 | | | Abstract: | The Robert Hare collection is a large, diverse, and rich collection. The collection contains essays, lectures, and letters to and from Robert Hare, the preeminent chemist in the United States during much of the nineteenth century. But as this collection shows, Hare was far more than a chemist. His essays and lectures touch on an array of topics, including discussions of democracy, currency, history, slavery, among others. The APS collection captures the sophistication of Hare's thought.
