Digitized Manuscripts
Digitized images of Einstein's manuscripts
have been grouped here according
to content into three sections: Scientific Writings, Non-Scientific
Writings and Travel Diaries.
The headings below can be expanded to display more
specific divisions of each section and eventually list
folders. You may then view a folder's contents by clicking
on the folder's
number.
Note that, as of this version,
Einstein Archives Online presents images only for
Einstein's
handwritten manuscripts.
It does not provide facsimiles for correspondence, typewritten
manuscripts, photos, audio material, etc. For more information,
see our About page.
The links constitute a sub-set of the
List of Folders in the Finding Aid. Many folders are not listed
on this page because they do not contain any handwritten manuscripts
(and hence no images). If you want
more information
on all the folders in the Albert
Einstein
Archives,
please go
to the
complete Finding Aid. Everything
is also available through searches in our Archival
Database.
In addition to the three sections listed here, this website
provides you with access to several Einstein manuscripts in the Schwadron
and Yahuda
collections of the Jewish
National & University Library.
