Here's a thought prompted in part by a nice little piece related to the greatest novelist of the twentieth century (in English, at least) posted yesterday at Open Culture, and by my recent reading of Ariel's Gift. I think I have the answer to the vexed question of how much right literary scholars and their like have to the private papers of those they are studying. And it's quite a simple answer.
Absolutely no right whatsoever.
Of course, my answer derives in part from my opinion of the value of the work of (most) literary scholars.
