Title A name given to the resource Autograph letter signed, dated Godmersham, 20-22 June 1808, to Cassandra Austen Description An account of the resource My final project text is a letter written by Jane Austen. Officially titled “Autograph letter signed, dated Godmersham, 20-22 June 1808, to Cassandra Austen”, this letter can be found at the Morgan Library and Museum in New York City. Purchased by J.P. Morgan from a New York dealer in 1920, this letter is part of a $3000 collection of 41 letters and two prints. This letter is personally significant to me because of the context in which I discovered Jane Austen’s writing. On a whim, during my freshman spring here, I decided to take an English class at Harvard that centered around Jane Austen and fandoms. This class ended up being my favorite class of the semester, and it inspired me to study English in a more formal capacity and take more classes in pursuit of an English secondary, in addition to making Jane Austen my new favorite author. One day, this class visited the Houghton, and we saw replicas of Jane Austen’s original letters. Something that I immediately noticed was how every single inch of the paper was used in her letters. The techniques used—from the cross-writing to the style of folding—made it such that a singular sheet of paper could be used as the envelope itself. These techniques, although no longer used in present-day, are interesting to analyze simply because they can provide the reader some context as to the availability of paper and the importance of space in writing at the time. I chose this specific letter from the Morgan Library and Museum because, this letter is an original cross-written Austen, whereas the letters at the Houghton are either authentic or cross-written but not both. In the future, this text may continue to be incredibly important, or it may fall out of relevance. Ultimately, this will depend on both how relevant of an author Jane Austen continues to be and on how many people know of the existence of this text.

Title A name given to the resource The Opposite of Loneliness Description An account of the resource Label: Marina Keegan (Yale Class of 2012) was 22 years old when she wrote her essay “The Opposite of Loneliness” for a special 2012 commencement edition of the Yale Daily News. Tragically, Marina died in a car accident just days after commencement. Yet, the memory of her spirit and the legacy of her beautiful prose live on in her written works, shared both via the print and online editions of the News as well as a collection of her essays, poems, and stories published by her parents in 2014. I first encountered “The Opposite of Loneliness” in high school. Although she writes specifically to a Yale audience, Marina’s words burrowed into my mind for days, weeks, months after I read them. She captures so eloquently feelings which I had felt but could not name: that feeling of comfort, safety, and warmth found in relationship and company with others – that opposite of loneliness. Marina writes: “It’s not quite love and it’s not quite community; it’s just this feeling that there are people, an abundance of people, who are in this together.” Inspired, I described my reactions to her essay in a letter I wrote to her in 2016 for a contest called Letters About Literature. There, I told her: “Thank you, Marina, for giving me the hope, inspiration, and determination to become the writer I one day hope to be.” Marina’s words can speak to all of us, for no matter where we are in life, we all long for that “opposite of loneliness.” Subject The topic of the resource Caption: Marina Keegan, was a member of the Class of 2012 at Yale and wrote this essay for a special commencement edition of the Yale Daily News, before tragically passing away just days later. Her essay beautifully touches on themes of belonging and what she calls the opposite of loneliness, feelings that she experienced during her time at Yale. Marina's words are memorialized in the online archives of the Yale Daily News and in a book of her writings published posthumously by her parents. (Since the 90s, back-issues of the YDN have been stored online, and I have not been able to access a print version of this edition.) The images here are screenshots of the online archive page that features her essay. One interesting aspect of this webpage method of archiving is that the comments section is not closed, meaning that, if people wanted to, they could continue to comment on the essay years after she wrote it. Another aspect of the images I uploaded I would like to draw your attention to is the italicized note added beneath the photo of Marina ("The piece below was written by Marina Keegan ’12 for a special edition of the News distributed at the class of 2012’s commencement exercises last week. Keegan died in a car accident on Saturday. She was 22.") This note was added by a member of the Yale Daily News as a message to readers about Marina to contextualize the piece and its author.

Title A name given to the resource My Parent's Ketuba Subject The topic of the resource The Ketuba of Eli Nasatir's Parents: Carolyn Rosenberg & Steven Nasatir (Translation attached) Description An account of the resource This is the ceremonial Jewish Ketuba/h that married Carolyn Rosenberg and Steven Nasatir (parents of Eli Nasatir) in 1992. A Ketubah is a traditional Jewish prenuptial contract that establishes the responsibilities between the soon-to-be wed pair. The Ketubah is designed by a sofer and is traditionally written in Aramaic, not Hebrew. This particular Ketubah has an especially intricate floral cutout design decorating both sides of the physical text that lies the middle, this specific design pattern has 200 in circulation and this copy was number 115/200. The sofer (scribe) of this Ketubah was the joint duo of Jay Greenspan and Tsirl Waletsky, legends in the industry. Both of them have passed away in the last decade, and Waletsky’s work was so noticeable that the Smithsonian began collecting Tsirl’s designed Ketubah. The Ketubah is one page, in Aramaic, reading right to left. Within the body of the text, the Hebrew names, given at birth, of both Carolyn (Chana) and Steve (Shaul) are placed within. As is customary with the tradition of the Ketubah, witnesses need to sign the document in order to make it official. This ceremonial position was given to close family friends of the wedded couple: Michael (Natan) Tarnoff and Ronald (Shimon) Futterman. Up until now, this document was solely a familial treasure, framed and hung proudly within the Nasatir house. Symbolically the document contains “legal” value, however in true secular practice its reach is exceedingly limited. On a personal note obviously this Ketubah is incredibly meaningful to me as it symbolizes my parents’ Jewish union. It’s an insight into my personal life as well as the manner in which Jews conduct their holiest endeavors, and therefore it is especially important to me to preserve this text for personal, historical, and emotional reasons.

Title A name given to the resource Paper Girls Description An account of the resource This is the first issue of Paper Girls, a serialized graphic novel written by Brian K. Vaughan, illustrated by Cliff Chiang, and colored by Matt Wilson. The series (which ran for 30 Issues from 2015 to 2019) follows a group of teen newspaper delivery girls from 1988 as they navigate an intergenerational war. As of 2019, the series was diffused in many ways. First, over 4 years Image Comics released each issue as a 130 (approx.) paperback with glossy pages for $9.99. Since the series’ completion, bound (hardcover) copies with multiple issues available. Due to the price of the physical comics and the lack of easy-to-find PDFs online, the audience is somewhat limited by socio-economic constraints. Still, the internet has given Paper Girls life outside physical issues. The series has many active Reddit threads and has inspired much fan art (often in the forms of more comics or in animated). Also, Amazon Studios is also developing the series into a TV show. The series itself contains many allusions to political tensions and tensions of the 1980s that comment on our current world. This issue includes both a subtle Reagan-Bush campaign sign and a plot that explores both the potential usefulness and dangers of guns. Further, the series both follows and critiques different tropes of the graphic novel genre’s canon. To an extent, the powerful group of girls mimics the crime-fighting units found in places like DC Comics’ The Justice League, but the focus on the power of girls (especially in the issue’s early context of somewhat sexist bullies) bucks against the common notion that comic books are a boys’ pastime. Also, as a review in ImagineFx explains, one of the alien races speaks a dialect that is a mix of Shakesperean-influenced grammar structures and diction and Nadsat, a fictional dialect from Burgess’ 1962 Clockwork Orange. The same review also explains Chiang’s and Wilson’s homages to various movies from the 1980s and how their bright, contrasting colors and clear lines envoke scenes from moves like ET and Flight of the Navigator. Overall, Paper Girls not only is an artful graphic novel, but a brilliant cultural relic that reveals much about how the world in 2019 is interpreted through a variety of mediums and with a complete analysis we can begin to see how the worlds of film, comics, literature, history, and digital media interact to inform the 2019 reader.

No text but three permutations of an image. If lead left to right then first is black, second is partially shaded, third is clear. They do not fully touch, instead only occupying space next to each other against a larger background. There are two pale hands. holding an apple. The apple is bright red in the final image (and shaded in pink in the second) and in the third image it has a little shine mark on the left. In the second from left image the hands are blue and in the third they are light tan, but the background is blue (the same shade as the hands in the second). Further, the only fingers we see in full are the thumbs of the hands on top. The larger back ground takes up the whole page. A young girl with bangs sits on a foreign looking planet. The ground is blue and as the image goes to the background it gets grayer and darker. She clutches a bright red apple and wears what looks like a one piece swim suit. Her eyes are cast down, likely looking at the apple but the picture only shows her eyelids. In the background are large rock-like structures on this planet and a spherical planet that resembles earth. The girl, the land, and the earth are blue tinted. The sky is made of differing shades of purple , swirling pinkish bits contrast the brilliant violent backdrop. There are also white blotches and stars. On the bottom of the page is a horizontal panel (again it is on top of the larger image and not taking up the whole page) where we close up on the girls face against a purple to pink gradient background. Her eyebrows are angular, casting a shadow above her eyelids. Her head is cut off right above her eyebrows and we see just the top of the apple and it's stem. Her hair is curly and she is still tinted blue (ie: the color is consistent). Text: In the panel on the bottom The girl [Erin, we presume] asks "Is this ...?" an out of view voice says "Yes, Erin"
