This series contains notes, research, drafts and reviews related to the books Judt authored throughout his career.
The bulk of the material in this series is from Postwar. There are also notes and research related to Past Imperfect, A Grand Illusion?, and Burden of Responsibility. Judt's papers contained drafts of essay collections he titled "Israel Book," "State of Exception" and "Essays." All of these appear to be alternative titles for Reappraisals.
The subseries also contain reviews and correspondence related to each of Judt's works. Correspondence from readers can also be found in Series VII: Correspondence.
