WPI's special Charles Dickens collections are an unlikely niche at an institution better known for robotics, computer science, and engineering. The Daniel and Alice Ryan Collection, The Robert D. Fellman Collection, the Fred Guida Audio/Visual Collection of Charles Dickens and other donations have helped WPI establish itself as a vital source of information about the towering 19th century literary figure.
On this episode of The WPI Podcast, we talk with resident Dickens scholar Joel Brattin, professor of humanities and arts, about the Dickens collections at WPI and "A Christmas Carol," the author's singular story of redemption that has been ingrained in popular culture from the moment it hit bookshelves in December 1843.
