Scope and content
This series contains material relating to Professor Goudge's personal life and his education at Dalhousie, the University of Toronto, and Harvard.
It begins with his personal journals for 1949-1950 and 1960-1972 and his "scrapbook" of quotations and poetry that he assembled in 1933.
Next is a file of course notes from his undergraduate program at Dalhousie (1930-31) and a copy of Pharos for his graduating year (1931). They are followed by research papers (1935, 1936) from his doctoral program at the University of Toronto, including the one on C. S. Peirce (1936) that became his doctoral dissertation; and course notes from the spring term at Harvard (1937), where he studied aesthetics under Professors David W. Prall, metaphysics under W. E. Hocking and Aristotle under J. D. Wild. The notes he took from A. N. Whitehead on cosmology and the function of reason have not been located.
