William John Rose Papers

  • CA UWA IN-8; 88-45
  • Fonds
  • 1919 - 1968

The papers are arranged into three different series, including drafts of his autobiography; published journal articles; and travel documents and invitations from 1919. His unpublished autobiography details his life from 1885 to 1950 and is divided into three parts: Memories of Childhood Days 1885-1900; College Days 1900 to 1905—which details his experience as a student at Wesley College; and Thirty Wander Years 1905-1935. The second series is comprised of a published newsletter—Canadian Association of Slavists 1968-- and journal articles written by Rose. The third series includes Rose’s invitations and travel documentation from 1919.

Rose Family sous-fonds

The sous-fonds consists of correspondence between Mrs. Rose (until 1952) and Dr. Rose (thereafter) with Mr. Chester Cuthbert, the nephew of Emily (Cuthbert) Rose, beginning in 1932 when the Roses were in Dartmouth College, and continuing until the death of Dr. Rose in 1968. The letters describe personal and family matters and illustrate the serious concerns of a Canadian family in the mid-twentieth century, as well as the pressing problems of a Canadian couple in a volatile Europe during the same period.
