Summary:

Praises JF’s book [Cosmic philosophy (1874)].

DCP-LETT-12192

From:
Charles Robert Darwin
To:
Ernst Ludwig (Ernst) Krause
Date:
13 Aug 1879
Source of text:
The Huntington Library (HM 36191)
Summary:

CD regrets that he feels large parts of Krause’s essay [on Erasmus Darwin] must be omitted. Gives his criticisms and his plan for condensed publication of his own article, with only parts of EK’s. If EK is unwilling to change, CD will publish his article privately. It is manifest that EK can publish his essay in its extended form in Germany if he wishes to do so.
