Item 143 - Letter from T. Fowler to Henry Sidgwick

1 doc

States that the E[udemian] Ethics is edited by the same man [A. T. H. Fritsche] as the De amicitia [Eth. [Nic] VIII, IX] of Aristotle; the former having been published by Manz of Ratisbon, and the latter at Giessen "'sumptibus Librariae Academiae Ferberinae'". Does not know of any edition with notes of the Magna Moralia, but refers HS to No. 2 of Spengel's Aristotelische Studien, where are to be found several critical notes on it as well as [on] the Eudemian Ethics. Explains that he would have written before, but he has only just returned to Oxford. Refers to his enjoyable visit to Cambridge and hopes that he may have the pleasure of helping Sidgwick to show his wife over Oxford either the following term, 'or [better still] when the chestnuts are out in the May Term.'
