Add.Ms.b.37 is part of a group, Add.Ms.b.35-37, which contain over 1100 typescript copies of letters written to Sir James George Frazer, arranged by surname of correspondent. A full description of the group may be found in the scope and content note for Add.Ms.b.35.

Add.Ms.b.37, the fifth and sixth boxes in the alphabetic sequence of letters, covers the surnames R-Z, and contains 392 typescript copies of letters in these two boxes, two other items catalogued as stand-alone items, and a group of seven items (which aren't copies) found together at the bottom of the second box. The two other copy items are a copy caption by Northcote Thomas for a photograph (Item 274), and a copy of a clipping (Item 389a). The group of seven items (Items 393-399) is miscellaneous original material, and includes a letter from the Trinity College Bursar to the Librarian (Item 393) about a group of Frazer letters sent to him in 1958 (our items Add.Ms.c.56-61); other items, letters and proofs sent to Frazer are closely related to those original manuscripts housed as Add.Ms.c.56-61.

Most of the letters in Add.Ms.b.37 are from correspondents represented by two or three letters only, but there are three large groups of letters from one correspondent: G. G. Ramsay (Items 1-32), Northcote Thomas (Items 261-266, 269-278), and a large cache of letters written by J. G. Frazer to John Roscoe with three letters from Roscoe in the gaps: Items 33-106, 109-144, 146-171.

Of the 146 copies of letters in Add.Ms.b.37 written by J. G. Frazer, five were published in Robert Ackerman's 'Selected Letters of Sir J. G. Frazer', and none are represented by originals in the Add.Ms.c.56-61 series (see allied materials note below). There are ten copies of letters written to Lilly Frazer.

Hotel Lutetia, 45, Boulevard Raspail, Paris (6e). Dated 21 May 1923 - Thanks him for his kind review of the abridged version of the GB; asks how he progresses with his book and his health, asks if he is well enough for an appointment to an English university, would like to bring him to Trinity; saw a post advertised for University College, London, which he assumes is created for [William] Perry, 'who devils for [Grafton] Elliot Smith', but [Marcel?] Mauss tells him Malinowski has been appointed to the post.

Oberbozen, pres Bolzano (Alto Adige), Italie. Dated 25.5.23 - His first love for anthropology is associated with having the GB read to him by his mother; was diagnosed with tuberculosis of a relative benign nature but has to undergo another year of treatment; has been appointed to a readership in Social Anthropology at the London School of Economics while W. J. Perry was made Reader in Cultural Anthropology at University College; isn't happy that he has been lumped with Perry, and had to postpone a year; his position is in part due to a strong movement to counteract Elliot Smithianism; is not happy that University College is full of hostility to Seligman; would be glad to lecture at Cambridge as others do, it is a more fruitful field for teaching and would like to work with Frazer, but cautions that there are some in Cambridge who see him as an outsider, but perhaps after his book has been published this may change; Seligman has been very ill; asks if he could introduce him to anthropological and sociological people in Rome, he has to do research there for articles for 'Nature'.

Caledonian Station Hotel, Princess Street, Edinburgh. Dated 21 November 1924 - First page only, breaks off mid-sentence. Asks for news, as it has been a long time; sends a notice of a research studentship at Trinity; his presence would help the Cambridge Anthropological School which is not flourishing, asks if he knows [L. C. G.] Clarke, the Curator of the Anthropological Museum; asks his opinion of [W. H. R.] Rivers' posthumous works; are settled in Cambridge, has a room at Trinity for his library, and sleep at the Blue Boar Hotel in Trinity Street; is giving the Gifford lectures on the Worship of Nature in Edinburgh, so far the only novelty was a suggestion that the Biblical story of the Fall of Man is of negro origin.

2 rue Sarusate, Paris 15. Dated 18 June 1924 - Writes about the 'coyolli', or Mexican bell.

Trinity College, Cambridge. Dated 11 August 1907 - Hopes this his effort to find Frazer's lost correspondence will be successful; wishes Marett had made an original contribution rather than criticising an old theory of his, there is much to do, and the differences turn largely on words: Marett's 'mana' being not very different from Frazer's 'taboo'.

Trinity College, Cambridge. Dated 22 October 1907 - Thanks him for his kind words about his article ['Folk-Lore in the Old Testament' in 'Anthropological Essays Presented to Edward Burnett Tylor'], but he thinks the section on Sacred oaks and terebinths had too many quotations and was tedious; [Marcel] Mauss has pointed out that he anticipated Frazer concerning 'Not to seethe the kid in its mothers milk'; the psychology in Marett's essays does not interest him; a new edition of 'Adonis' comes out shortly, he has addressed [Lewis] Farnell's objections, would like his comments.
