More than Stories

LSE Library is celebrating this year's Literary Festival

To coincide with the LSE Literary Festival |this year (11 - 13 February), the LSE Library and Archives have produced some reading lists taking a number of well-known works of literature as starting points, and shows how they can be used alongside archives, pamphlets, newspapers, electronic resources and other research materials, as sources of evidence and ideas about society. Select a title on the left to see suggested related readings and materials.

Look out for our display of historic photographs of LSE, chosen along a literary theme, and Theatre of Action , a slideshow of images from our gay liberationist, pacifist and other collections showing how activists used drama to campaign for change.
