Trin. Coll., Dublin - Thanks WW for his favourable letter concerning his Lectures on the Logical Method of Political Economy. The method of political economy is both inductive and deductive. The basis of deduction is both knowledge of principal motives actuating mankind in pursuit of wealth, and the principal conditions on which the results of industry depend. These represent general tendencies which indicate the direction inductive investigations should take: begin with a collection of actual cases and compare generalised results with a priori deductions. This way - as in the physical sciences - one should arrive at residual phenomena and be led to new principles. Hopes WW approves. He has not seen the work by Richard Jones which he refers to.

23 Suffolk St., Pall Mall - JDF's days in Cambridge 'were some of the happiest of my life'. He regrets that he did not have the opportunity to have had 'a systematic education within the walls of Trinity'. JDF is devoted to the pursuit of the physical sciences: 'in the present state of Science a liberal basis of mathematical knowledge is indispensable to its successful prosecution'. JDF has never had a lesson in mathematics and has taught himself from book one of Euclid to the integral calculus. 'It is one of the current mistakes of the present popularizing system to imagine that difficulties in the pursuit of knowledge are confined to the lower classes'. Could WW point out to him a course of study to assist his work in the theory of heat and the science of meteorology.

10 Aldenham Street, St Pancras, London.—Professor Körting wishes to know which stanzas are contained in the fragment of the Chanson de Roland at Trinity (MS R.3.4), as he intends to publish a critical edition of the poem.

—————

Transcript

Dear Sir.

Professor Körting, of Münster, wishes me to give him information about a fragment of the old Anglonorman Chanson de Roland, contained in a Ms. of Trinity College Cambridge {1}. I only got his letter after I left Cambridge, and so I am not able to look after the Ms. myself. But, as I should like to comply with the wish of my friend, I take the liberty to ask you for the information required, as perhaps you know the Ms. of so important a poem in the library of your college—Mr. Körting cannot give the exact number of the Ms., nor can I find a Catalogue of the Mss. of Trin. Coll. here. I should feel much obliged to you if you would be so kind to tell me of which and of how many tirades or stanzas the fragment consists, compared with the text published by Müller or Kölbing {2}, and if you would copy just a few stanzas, especially the first and last of the fragment, so as to be able to form an adequate judgement of the age, language and dialect of the poem. Prof. Körting intends publishing a critical edition from the several Mss. known of this oldest frensh† poem and is in need of the information required; he would be very thankful indeed, if you could help him. I answered to his letter that I should apply to you, as the only means I knew of ascertaining what he wanted to know. I shall be in London till this day week.

Yours truly
Dr C Horstmann.

London | 10 Aldenham Street. | St. Pancras.

This letter must have been written during the period when Körting was at Münster, i.e. 1876-1892, and after the publication of Kölbing’s edition of the Chanson de Roland (see below). The sheet bears some notes in pencil by Aldis Wright.

{1} R.3.4, 15th c.

{2} Theodor Müller’s edition of the Oxford MS. of the Chanson de Roland (Bodleian Library, MS Digby 23, part 2) was published at Göttingen in 1863. Eugen Kölbing’s edition of the Venice IV MS. was published at Heilbronn in 1877.

My dear Mr Aldis Wright

Herewith you will receive the official announcement that the Master of the Rolls {2} has proposed that you should edit Robert of Gloucester’s Chronicle, and the approval of the Treasury of his Lordships† recommendation. The papers sent with this will give you all the information you will require; if it be not sufficient Luard will, I am sure, tell you all he knows, and if that will not do, you must call on me the first time you come to London, & here learn all I can communicate on the subject.

Ever faithfully yours
T. Duffus Hardy
