Manuscript is on the "Unified Field Theory" and is a draft from his published article "A Generalization of the Relativistic Theory of Gravitation." One quarto page 11 x 8 1/2 inches; 280 x 217 mm. Manuscript in black ink on recto verso blank. With 31 lines of manuscript text in German including over 180 words and eleven equations. Because this is a working document there are numerous revisions on the page. He strikes through and makes additions in eight places. At the top right corner the page is numbered "6" in his hand. Leaf is very lightly toned but generally about fine. It is quite rare to find manuscripts of Einstein works that has been published.<br> <br> "A Generalization of the Relativistic Theory of Gravitation" was an article written by Einstein in German and translated into English for publication by his assistant E.G. Straus in approximately 1945. The article was long and so it was divided in two parts. The present leaf comes from Part II and the translated text is on pages 735-736 of the published article.<br> <br> "The published translation appears to follow this original manuscript very closely and without alteration. In this section of his paper Einstein is discussing the field equations for the Hamiltonian operator which plays a central role in the equations of motion for General Relativity and is defined in terms of the metric tensor and its conjugate momenta; and in this particular page of the paper Einstein is here considering the implications of embracing a stronger form of the field equations." University Archives<br> <br> During the course of World War II Einstein came to the conclusion that the General Theory of Relativity was the proper basis for the development of Unified Field Theory; and using this framework he explored the implications of using new and complex forms of number within Unified Field Theory. The publication of this article marked the beginning of Einstein's final approach to Unified Field Theory an approach which Einstein pursued until the end of his life.

EINSTEIN, ALBERT; MAYER, WALTHER
Autograph Letter. WITH: Manuscript Leaf of Calculations
Caputh Germany: np 1932. First edition. Very Good. AN IMPORTANT SCIENTIFIC LETTER FROM EINSTEIN TO HIS CLOSEST MATHEMATICAL COLLABORATOR ACCOMPANIED BY A MANUSCRIPT LEAF OF CALCULATIONS IN EINSTEIN’S HAND ON THE SAME LINE OF RESEARCH.<br /> <br /> Although the original association of the letter and the leaf of calculations cannot be confirmed the two pieces clearly emerge from the same scientific context and have been preserved together. A superb pair from the final months of Einstein’s German period. The Letter:<br /> <br /> In this intense and intellectually urgent letter Einstein writes to Walther Mayer his indispensable mathematical collaborator often referred to as “Einstein’s Calculator†describing a newly conceived approach to the technical obstacles in their unified-field theory involving semi-vectors spinors and modified Dirac-type equations. Einstein tells Mayer he believes he “sees a new possibility†one that determines key constants in the system without resorting to the semi-vector construction.<br /> <br /> He then sketches the structure of the revised scheme points to the condition under which the full set of field equations reduces to a single one and warns that if this same collapse occurs in the general case “the whole thing would be useless.†With his imminent departure from Germany he urges Mayer to examine the issue quickly and gives instructions for where a reply will reach him while en route.<br /> <br /> Dirac and De Broglie – Significance of the Scientific References:<br /> <br /> Of particular importance is Einstein’s explicit engagement in this letter with the work of Paul Dirac and Louis de Broglie two of the central figures in early quantum theory. Einstein refers directly to the Dirac equations introduced only a few years earlier which provided a relativistic formulation of the electron and played a foundational role in quantum mechanics. He also invokes the De Broglie equations for matter waves reflecting his continued effort to reconcile quantum ideas with relativistic field theory. These references place the letter squarely at the intersection of Einstein’s unified-field program and the emerging quantum framework he famously regarded with both fascination and skepticism. The letter thus documents Einstein actively testing whether concepts originating in quantum mechanics—Dirac’s relativistic wave equation and De Broglie’s wave–particle duality—could be absorbed into a geometrically unified classical field theory. Letters in which Einstein explicitly grapples with Dirac and De Broglie at this technical level are rare and represent an important record of his engagement with the central theoretical developments of the early twentieth century.<br /> <br /> Historical Context:<br /> <br /> Einstein’s collaboration with Walther Mayer beginning around 1930 produced some of the most technically sophisticated papers of Einstein’s later career. Together they developed new mathematical structures—semi-vectors spinors and higher-dimensional tangent-space formulations—used in their unified-field attempts. This letter dates from December 1932 only weeks before Einstein left Germany permanently and belongs to the final phase of their joint work published in the Sitzungsberichte of the Prussian Academy.<br /> <br /> Einstein valued Mayer so highly that he later persuaded the Institute for Advanced Study to create a permanent position for him the only such appointment ever granted for one of Einstein’s collaborators.<br /> <br /> The Manuscript Calculations:<br /> <br /> Accompanying the letter is a two-page manuscript leaf containing Einstein’s working calculations: trial expressions constraint conditions and variant formulations of the same type of semi-vector and spinor problems addressed in the letter. While we cannot confirm that these pages were originally enclosed with the letter they concern the same scientific material and have been preserved alongside it.<br /> <br /> Einstein manuscript leaves of this depth and technical significance—especially when tied to a known collaborative problem—are scarce.<br /> <br /> Significance:<br /> <br /> Whether or not originally sent together the letter and the calculations form a powerful and coherent scientific pair offering a rare view of Einstein actively working through equations testing ideas and relying on Mayer to verify mathematical structure. They capture Einstein at a critical inflection point in both his scientific life and personal circumstances as he prepared to leave Germany forever.<br /> <br /> –––––––––<br /> <br /> The letter from Einstein to Mayer reads in full translated from the original German:<br /> <br /> Dear Mr. Mayer! I believe I see a new possibility which promises success. It is along the lines of the recently devised way according to which one places zero on the right side of the Dirac-Equations. The novelty is in the fact that the constants a1 . a4 aside from a totally irrelevant factor are completely known without passing on to the specific Semi-Vectors.<br /> <br /> After omission of the _-terms the equations read<br /> <br /> Ee st ys = s 1<br /> xe<br /> <br /> Or for De-Broglie-Equations of the restless particle<br /> <br /> E4 st ys = s 1a<br /> x4<br /> <br /> Here is what's new: How does one choose the ay so that the De Broglie - Choices stay largely undetermined<br /> <br /> Result: The four equations 1a reduce themselves into a single one when and only when if one lets a1 = 1 a2 = 1 a3 = 1 a4 = 1<br /> <br /> I believe that with this selection ay is for the equation describing the _-terms 1 the fitting substitute for the DeBroglie-Equation. These equations are already supplied by the simplest Hamilton function.<br /> <br /> See if the general equations 1 degenerate with this placing for a as well. If this were the case the whole thing would be useless. I leave on Saturday. A letter that is sent to Antwerp to the `Oakland' Hapag Antwerp harbor will reach me until December 13.<br /> <br /> Cordial greetings from your A. E.<br /> <br /> Autograph Letter Signed Written in German. One page 8.5 x 11 in.; 216 x 279 mm. probably Caputh near Potsdam Germany the location of Einstein's country home Sunday 4 December 1932.

One octavo page 8 1/2 x 5 1/4 inches; 215 x 134 mm. Manuscript letter on recto verso blank. With one horizontal center crease as expected in a letter. A few tiny closed tears with no loss. A few small stains not affecting text. Overall very good.<br> <br> This letter with text in German is addressed to "Herr Zeisler" Sigmund Zeisler an German-Jewish U.S. attorney born in Austria. He was known for his defense of radicals in Chicago in the 1880s also know as the Haymarket Affair. His wife was the famous concert pianist Fannie Bloomfield Zeisler. Some unproven sources have said that Zeisler was Einstein's lawyer but regardless it is know that he and Einstein were good friends and had much correspondence over the years. According to "The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein" published by Princeton University and a letter from Zeisler to Einstein on October 15 1921 just a month before this present letter. "Zeisler had invested $4300 in American shares on Einstein’s behalf in October 1921. He sub- sequently informed Einstein of the accumulated interest. Einstein left $4300 with Samuel Untermyer to be invested on Einstein’s behalf when they met in New York on 28 May. Here Zeisler apparently uses coded language presumably to conceal the investment from the German tax authorities to inform Einstein of the identity of the company in which the sum was invested and of the rate of interest." This present letter only a month later from Einstein to Zeisler thanks him for "a great and friendly gesture."<br> <br> Translated by an outside party:<br> <br> "Leiden 13 XI 21 Dear Mr. Zeisler You have really done us a great and friendly gesture.

Some unproven sources have said that Zeisler was Einstein's lawyer but regardless it is known that he and Einstein were good friends and had much correspondence over the years. According to "The Collected Papers of Albert Einstein" published by Princeton University Einstein was in correspondence during the 1920s with Zeisler regarding various American investments. According to a letter from Zeisler to Einstein on October 15 1921 "Zeisler had invested $4300 in American shares on Einstein’s behalf in October 1921.

EINSTEIN, Albert
Autograph letter in German signed 'Papa' to his son Hans Albert n.p. 11 October 1938
1938. No Binding. Near Fine. No Binding. Letter 8 1/2 in x 11 in. 1-2/3 pages. 8.5'' x 11'' pen. Except for marginal punch holes and folds in fine condition. ---- <br> <br> In this remarkable letter Einstein clearly condemns Great Britain and France for their "rascally" rule in the Munich Agreement. On September 30 1938 France and Great Britain signed a treaty that betrayed their alliance with Czechoslovakia and allowed Adolf Hitler to annex the Sudetenland. Albert Einstein had left Nazi Germany in 1933 to emigrate to the United States and his son the physicist Hans Albert Einstein who specialized in hydrodynamics had just done the same in 1938 by moving to South Carolina: <br> <br> " . Es ist gut dass du von Zürich weg bist. MAN SIEHT AN DER TSCHECHOSLOWAKEI ALLZU DEUTLICHER WIE MORSCH DAS EUROPA GEWORDEN IST. DIES ALLES BETRÜBT MICH SEHR HAUPTSÄCHLICH DIE SCHUFTIGE HALTUNG ENGLANDS UND FRANKREICHS DIE SICH OFFENBAR ZU EINER ART AUSVERKAUF DES FREMDEN GUTES ENTSCHLOSSEN HABEN. <br> It is good that you are away from Zurich. One can see all too clearly from the case of Czechoslovakia how rotten Europe has become. All this saddens me very much mainly the rascally attitude of England and France who seem to have decided on a kind of selling out property of others. <br> <br> Einstein also evocates to his ongoing work on the Unified field theory: <br> <br> ". WISSENSCHAFTLICH GEHT ES TROTZ ALLEM SEHR SCHÖN VORWÄRTS. ICH HABE HOFFNUNG DASS WIR DAS RÄTSEL DER ELEKTRISCHEN ATOMISTIK WIRKLICH LÖSEN WERDEN. Dies wird sich in den nächsten Monaten entscheiden. <br> Scientifically in spite of everything things are progressing very nicely. I have hope that we will really solve the riddle of electric atomistics. This will be decided in the next few months. <br> <br> After his success in the field of general relativity Albert Einstein carried out numerous works in particular on a unified field theory which was to allow him to reconcile general relativity and quantum physics i.e. his theory on gravitation and the question of electromagnetism. For this purpose he had recourse to various collaborations in particular with Peter Bergmann. <br> <br> Further he asks how he is doing in his new home and if the children have already made friends with colored as well as the white locals: <br> <br> Was machen die Buben Können sie schon ein wenig englisch und raufen sie sich mit den weissen und schwarzen Southcarolinern Denkst du noch daran dir selber deine Bude zu bauen Ist der Wagen noch gesund Habt ihr schon viel von der Gegend gesehen <br> What are the boys doing Do they already know a little English and do they scuffle with the white and black South Carolinians Are you still thinking about building your own place Is the car still healthy Have you seen much of the area yet <br> <br> Albert Einstein opens his letter with talks about his son's work in hydrodynamics as well as about possible solutions to keep his first wife Mileva Maric mother of his children his house in Zürich: <br> <br> Hoffentlich hast Du dem aus Deutschland vertriebenen Hydrodynamiker pünktlich geantwortet. Kennst Du etwas von seinen Arbeiten Er kennt Publikationen von Dir. Deine Mutter schrieb sehr verzweifelt. Ich werde wohl wenn es noch möglich ist das Haus in der Huttenstr. auf meinen Namen übernehmen müssen. Dies ist mir gar nicht recht weil es meine Hinterlassenschaft gefährdet. Es können doch auch in Zürich hässliche Dinge passieren. Die Hypotheken sind nämlich weniger zerstörbar als das Haus und ausserdem können die Mieten heruntersausen. Andererseits möchte ich aber Deiner Mutter ihre letzten Jahre erleichtern. Besser wäre es wohl wenn ich das Haus auf einen amerikanischen Strohmann übertragen lassen könnte der nichts besitzt. Aber das geht nicht weil nur eine Übertragung auf mich als den Besitzer der dritten Hypothek ein Schritt wäre der nicht einfach als Umgehung der Schuldverpflichtungen gedeutet werden könnte. <br> Hopefully you answered the hydrodynamicist expelled from Germany on time. Do you know any of his work He knows about your publications. Your mother wrote very desperately. If it is still possible I will have to take over the house in Huttenstr. in my name. This does not suit me at all because it endangers my legacy. After all ugly things can happen in Zurich too. The mortgages are less destructible than the house and besides the rents can hurtle down. On the other hand I would like to make your mother's last years easier. It would be better if I could have the house transferred to an American straw man who owns nothing. But that is not possible because only a transfer to me as the owner of the third mortgage would be a step that could not simply be interpreted as a circumvention of the debt obligations. <br> <br> With Einstein's Nobel Prize money Mileva Einstein who had been divorced since 1919 was able to buy the house at Huttenstrasse 62 in Zurich. <br> Caltech's Einstein Papers Project has recorded this letter under archival no. 75-946. unknown

EINSTEIN, ALBERT
Autograph Letter Signed ALS Denouncing Racial Segregation
<p>Princeton NJ: np 1943. First edition. nb. Fine. EINSTEIN OFFERS STRONG AND PRESCIENT WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO THE LEADER OF THE NAACP IN THE FIGHT AGAINST RACIAL SEGREGATION AND DISCRIMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. Background: Einstein's fight against racial discrimination in the United States:<br /><br />The imperative "to protect the rights of the individual. was Einstein's most fundamental political tenet. Individualism and freedom were necessary for creative art and science to flourish. Personally politically and professionally he was repulsed by any restraints. <br /><br />"That is why he remained outspoken about racial discrimination in America. As a Jew who had grown up in Germany Einstein was acutely sensitive to such discrimination. 'The more I feel an American the more this situation pains me' he wrote in an essay called 'The Negro Question' for the January 1946 issue of Pageant magazine. 'I can escape the feeling of complicity in it only by speaking out.'" Isaacson Albert Einstein 505. <br /><br />Even more directly in his 1946 commencement speech to Lincoln University the first degree-granting Historically Black College and University HBCU in the United States Einstein strongly denounced segregation as "an American tradition which is uncritically handed down from one generation to the next" noting that "There is separation of colored people from white people in the United States. That separation is not a disease of colored people. It is a disease of white people. I do not intend to be quiet about it." <br /><br />This remarkable letter - from 1943 - is one of the earliest examples of his interest in condemning racism in the United States. <br /><br />The letter:<br /><br />Dated 22 September 1943 and handwritten on his embossed Mercer Street Princeton letterhead Einstein writes in English to Walter F. White the enormously influential African-American civil rights leader who led the NAACP from 1929-1955 praising him for his work and revealing his own awareness of and frustrations with racism and prejudice in America. 
<br /><br />The text reads in full:<br /><br />Dear Mr. White:<br /><br />I have been quite impressed by the address you delivered some years ago at a meeting of the Princeton Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. I know how hard it is to awaken the conscience even of good-hearted and well-meaning people when deep rooted prejudices are in the way. It is a great work indeed which you are doing relentlessly for the betterment of the living conditions of our Colored fellow-citizens for justice and for the accomplishment of national unity of the American people.<br /><br />With sincere respect and kind wishes<br /><br />Yours <br />Albert Einstein<br /><br />-------------<br /><br />On April 28 1940 White was the keynote speaker at "an inter-racial meeting sponsored by the Princeton branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People" where his topic was "What Happens to Democracy When It Encounters the Color Line." Princeton Herald April 26 1940. At the time Princeton did not admit African Americans and the community was debating the question of whether or not to end segregation at the university. Princeton in fact did not admit its first African-American student until the fall of 1947. <br /><br />Einstein - writing in 1943 - notes that he heard White speak "some years ago". Something clearly must have deeply impressed Einstein about White's speech for him to write this thoughtful letter to White over three years after the event.<br /><br />Note: In addition to its content this apparently unpublished letter is also remarkable for being one of the very few letters Einstein hand-wrote in English during this period as German was still very much his preferred tongue. <br /><br />Princeton: September 22 1943. One page on Einstein's embossed Mercer Street Princeton letterhead 7.25x10 in visible handsomely matted and framed with a photograph of Einstein. Fine condition.</p> np
