Notlar	The papers of Elie Kedourie centre upon his research interests in the politics and history of the Middle East, and the political activities of Western nations in the Middle East ranging from the late nineteenth century to the contempory politics of the later twentieth century. His research papers include large numbers of photocopies and notes on archival material from British archives, in particular the PRO, Oxford University and Durham University collections, as well as the archives of the French Foreign Office, the Israeli State Archives, Zionist Archives, Australian military archives, American State Department archives, the Yale papers, and the Weizmann archives, as well as some photocopies from the Jordanian state intelligence archives. Among these notes are several extensive typed translations or transcriptions, for example of the Weizmann papers. There are also extensive notes and copies from the Arabic journal al-Manar. Draft materials for Kedourie's publications on England and the Middle East, Politics and the Middle East, and the posthumous publications of lectures on Hegel and Marx, and Introduction to Political Thought are included in the collection. There are also draft materials for a wide variety of papers, lectures and talks prepared between the 1950s - 1990s on various topics, including nationalism, the political philosopher Afghani, zionism, Jewish communities, the Arab-Israeli conflict, minorities in the Middle East, and various aspects of Middle Eastern politics. Papers relating to both political conferences, such as a controvertial symposium on Arab-Israeli issues held at Rhodes in 1977, as well as closed policy discussion groups, such as the Bilderberg meetings, the discussion group on Britain and the Persian Gulf, and papers in collaboration with Hugh Thomas as part of the Centre for Policy Studies, shed light on the interaction of Kedourie's research activities with the contemporary political sphere. Further, there is a large series of published works by Elie Kedourie, such as articles and reviews by him, as well as reviews of his work and, later, obituaries of Elie Kedourie and posthumous references to his work, collated and indexed by Sylvia and Helen Kedourie. A large amount of preserved correspondence captures public and academic response to the innovative approach and sometimes controvertial fields of Kedourie's research. This includes letters from the public in response to his documentary series on the Arab-Israeli conflict, as well as discussions with various researchers on figures such as T.E. Lawrence, and historians A.R.Gibb and Arnold Toynbee. Much correspondence relates to his editorship of Middle Eastern Studies, and includes papers sent in for publication from scholars from across the Middle East and Israel, as well as the UK and US. Kedourie had long-standing academic correspondence with many scholars in Israel, which, in addition to discussion of academic themes, provide insight into the impact of the changing socio-politcal context of Israel from the 1950s to the 1990s. Here, early letters from Yohanan Ramati give significant first hand accounts of the impacts of migration of Jewish communities to Israel in the early 1950s. In addition, correpondence between Kedourie and his colleagues at LSE and SOAS provide valuable information on internal responses to shifts within University funding and employment practices in the 1970s and 1980s. Kedourie's correspondence also contains several bundles of correspondence relating to responses and counter-reponses to reviews of his own work, and reviews he had written, in the form of 'Letters to the editor' for publications such the the Times Literary Supplement and Commentary, providing a sense of currency and sensitivity of Kedourie's research within the political climate contemporary to his work. There is also material collated by Sylvia and Helen Kedourie following Elie Kedourie's death, including material relating to publications produced in his memory. This includes two unpublished informal accounts of personal memories of Elie Kedourie written by his colleagues. The papers of Sylvia Kedourie (ms39122/11) include her research on women in Arab countries, notes on primary sources as well as drafts on university education in Egypt, papers on Syrian author al-Kawakibi, political figure Sayyid Qutb, secularism, the political Ba'th movement, and on Turkey. Her correspondence includes letters from Youself Elkabir, with enclosed reports by both himself and Gabbaye on recommendations regarding the Arab-Israeli conflict.
