Part of Papers of Sir James Frazer

23c Via Lombardia, Roma - Is sorry to hear about Sir James' eyesight; is enclosing a subscription for the bibliography, wishes they could do more, have been hit by the collapse of the dollar, drastic cuts in salary, increased taxes, and appeals for help from scholars principally from Central Europe; will spread the word to scholars and institutions in Italy, and will inform Dr Boëthius, head of the Swedish School, and Professor Rostovtzeff; has just visited the antiquities museum in Baghdad and has discovered exciting problems of religion, especially the function of the serpent in Sumerian religion.
