Bereik en inhoud
Trinity Lodge - Thanks RJ for his suggestions and sends him the revised sheet [see WW to RJ, 28 Sept. 1845]. WW does not intend to write much on his dispute with Charles Lyell [see WW to RJ, 16 Sept. 1845]: 'for my book is intended mainly as a treatise on local questions, now under discussion in the University' ['Of a Liberal Education in General, and with Particular Reference to the Leading Studies of the University of Cambridge', 1845]. WW wrote his book because 'people were going on in a very thoughtless manner with regard to changes in our examinations which I hope I shall stop'.
