“7 Campus Buildings Named.” The Chicago Maroon 71, no. From guiding one of the largest archival projects of their time to editing the eight-volume The Text of the Canterbury Tales Studied on the Basis of All Known Manuscripts (1940) to serving side by side in the Code and Cipher Section during World War I, from leading departments, organizations, and journals to producing anthologies and readers and writing fiction for adults and children, Manly and Rickert were pioneers not only in literary studies but also in a range of other disciplines. Emphasizing their philosophy of intellectual collaboration, we outline the networks that the chapters will explore in more depth, for the first time charting the incredible reach that they had through their unexpected partnerships and how those connections influenced future generations of researchers and teachers. This introduction summarizes Manly and Rickert’s accomplishments, looking at the big picture of their humanities research during the early twentieth-century culture of paranoia, economic anxiety, and world war.
