‎George Orwell Typed Letter Signed.‎

‎June 1945. Rare typed letter signed "Geo. Orwell" to Gerry Byrne announcing that "my wife died three months ago very suddenly and unexpectedly" writing about the aftermath of her death including his relief that their son Richard was too young to to miss her ".He is now 13 1/2 months old and is extremely well. He has twelve teeth and is almost able to walk." apologising that he cannot come to speak at a Labour Party campaign meeting ".I am up to the eyes in the election myself apart from other work. I don't even know of anyone suitable." 1 page 4to 27b Canonbury Square Islington London 28 June 1945 ".She was to have an operation which should not have been very serious in itself and was expected to cure the trouble she suffered from but she appears to have died as soon as the operation began as a result of the anaesthetic." Although Orwell here relates the immediate cause of Eileen's death under anaesthetic for a hysterectomy "the trouble she suffered from" was advanced cancer. Orwell was in France when she died on 29 March 1945 reporting on the final stages of the war in Europe and he here explains to Byrne that he returned as soon as he could after the funeral escaping his grief through work ".I felt better when I was moving about." and leaving his son Richard "with an aunt in Greenwich". He was back in England covering the Election which was just a week away and explains to Byrne that he had just taken on a housekeeper - Susan Watson - which would make it practical for his son to rejoin him in Islington. Orwell's correspondent here is Gerry Byrne the husband of Amy Charlesworth with whom he had corresponded since 1937.

‎George Orwell Typed Letter Signed.‎

‎January 9 1946. Rare typed letter signed by the acclaimed author of Nineteen-Eighty Four George Orwell; part of a long correspondence with scientist Edward R. Ward regarding his views on science. One page typescript the letter reads: '9th January 1946 Dear Mr. Ward Your letter has been passed on to be by "Tribune". I am sorry that in their correspondence columns I should have answered what was really an abridgement of your original letter; but I had not seen the latter and I did not know that what was printed was a shortened version. I cannot enter into what might become a prolonged controversy but I must stick to two of my original points: a that many scientists including some of those you name appear to adopt an extremely unscientific attitude towards problems in which their emotions and loyalties are involved; and b that members of the general public such as myself have a right to form and express their own opinions on the relationship between science and society. I do not know in what way your original letter was mutilated but you did state quite clearly that I as a journalist had no right to express an opinion on matters that were the sole concern of scientists. It was this remark in your letter that led me to reply. The theologians make exactly similar claims - for example that a member of the lay public has no right to air his opinions on such questions as the existence of God - and the one claim seems to me to be about as well founded as the other. Yours truly "Geo. Orwell" George Orwell.' With Orwell's 27B Canonbury Square Islington London return address. From the late 19th century to the turn of the 20th century English scientist Eduard R. Ward was a semi-professional microscopist and well-known figure in the Manchester scientific society. He was one of the founders of the Manchester Microscopical Society and remains best known for his photographic documentation of the construction of the Manchester Ship Canal. Science-Gossip 1901. First published in the Tribune on October 26 1945 Orwell's "What is Science" elaborated on the ideas summarized in his reply to Ward essentially warning of the danger of leaving scientific pursuits to scientists in laboratories and making it inaccessible to the general public. Ward responded to Orwell's "What is Science" in the Tribune in October 1945 but the Tribune printed only an abridged version of his letter. Orwell responded to him in print again in November but had done so without the full text of Ward's original letter. This January 9 1946 letter is his private response to the letter in full. In near fine condition. Double matted and framed with a photograph of Orwell. The entire piece measures 19 inches by 16.25 inches. In his concise article "What is Science" Orwell concludes "A hundred years ago Charles Kingsley described science as ‘making nasty smell in a laboratory’. A year or two ago a young industrial chemist informed me smugly that he ‘could not see what was the use of poetry’. So the pendulum swings to and fro but it does not seem to me that one attitude is any better than the other. At the moment science is on the upgrade and so we hear quite rightly the claim that the masses should be scientifically educated: we do not hear as we ought the counter-claim that the scientists themselves would benefit by a little education. Just before writing this I saw in an American magazine the statement that a number of British and American physicists refused from the start to do research on the atomic bomb well knowing what use would be made of it. Here you have a group of same men in the middle of a world of lunatics. And though no names were published I think it would be a safe guess that all of them were people with some kind of general cultural background some acquaintance with history or literature or the arts — in short people whose interests were not in the current sense of the word purely scientific." unknown‎
