Celebrating the Taussig Collection at YLS

We’ve previously noted the opening of the Anthony Taussig Collection at the Yale Law School.  It was the subject of a symposium, Celebration of the Anthony Taussig Acquisition, at YLS on October 3.  Video recordings of the symposium are now on the Yale law library’s website, from which I take the following list of speakers:

Robert C. Post (Dean of the Yale Law School), “Welcoming Remarks.”
    
Anthony Taussig (Barrister, Lincoln’s Inn), “Building the Taussig Collection,” with an introduction by Blair Kauffman, Director of the Lillian Goldman Law Library. Taussig recorded his talk at the Institute for Advanced Legal Studies, University of London.. . .
    
Sir John H. Baker (Downing Professor Emeritus of the Laws of England, University of Cambridge), “Building the Taussig Collection,” with an introduction by Blair Kauffman, Director of the Lillian Goldman Law Library.
    
Anders Winroth (Forst Family Professor of History, Yale University), “Using the Taussig Collection for Teaching,” with an introduction by E.C. Schroeder, Director of the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library.
    
Andrew Brown (Ph.D. Candidate in English, Yale University), “Using the Taussig Collection for Research,” with an introduction by E.C. Schroeder, Director of the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library.
