The Speeches and Writings subseries comprises files related to articles,
lectures, abstracts, reports, and a monograph written by Karle focusing
on a range of topics relevant to his crystallography research. The bulk
of the materials span from 1950 to 2000. In addition to published and
unpublished writings, the files contain drafts, working files,
correspondence, research, and other background material. Topics explored
focus mostly on x-ray diffraction, gas electron diffraction, electron
diffraction, anomalous dispersion, and quantum mechanics. Some writings
focus on the analysis of crystal and molecular structure of specific
compounds. Frequent collaborators represented in the subseries include
Herbert A. Hauptman, Lou Massa, Lulu Huang, Richard Gilardi, John
Konnert, Wayne Hendrickson, and Judith Flippen-Anderson. Speech files
mostly include lectures presented at conferences, symposia, and
