- Scope and Contents
-
The John Winthrop Platner Papers, 1896-1921, document the professional work of Platner.

The collection is arranged according to the following categories: poem, correspondence, addresses, lectures, unpublished manuscript titled "The history of early Christian literature," and miscellaneous notes and clippings. The bulk of the collection is class lectures.
