Abstract

Sir Norman Angell (whose full name was Ralph Norman Angell Lane) was a British journalist who exerted a great deal of political influence. Toward the end of his life, he granted the collection of his personal papers to the Ball State University Library. A number of these documents are In German, and this thesis is an English translation of them, to make their contents more readily available to those students and faculty members who work with them.Several of the articles included here were written by Norman Angell and published in German newspapers. while it is certain that Sir Norman knew German, this translator has been unable to determine whether he himself or some other translator sot his articles into German. This translator consulted dictionaries when necessary; she also referred to several books and to the Ball State Library micro-cards of the Reichstag minutes for aid in deciphering hand-written names and titles.
