Table of contents

It was the only occasion on which Gomperz met Harriet, and she seems to have approved of him, if one may judge from the personal revelation she made to him. Gomperz apparently next wrote to Mill on 30 September, , telling of the death of his father earlier that year and asking a favour.

Could Mill determine whether it would be possible for a medical friend of his to obtain a post in the service of the East India Company? On 10 November, pleased to have at last, it seemed, found a publisher for the Logic, Weber of Leipzig, who was planning to bring it out in December and January, Gomperz replied. He also asked for permission to be the translator of On Liberty.

In January , Gomperz apparently wrote again, asking another favour—that a copy of On Liberty be sent to a friend. Mill made the arrangements, and then, not having had any acknowledgment by 31 March, wrote volunteering to send another copy if the first had gone astray. This letter went unanswered, and Mill wrote yet again on 16 May below. In his reply of 11 June below , Mill said he was content to leave the translation of On Liberty with Gomperz as he wished, and he tried to remove any semblance of pressure concerning it.

The relationship then lapsed into a period of silence for almost two years. Unsure that the first note would reach Gomperz, since his address had been mislaid, Mill asked him to write and give it in full again so that a copy of Representative Government could be properly sent; he also mentioned his surprise at learning that a German translation of On Liberty had appeared.

Whether Gomperz received the first of these appeals is not known, but the second at least evoked a response written on 1 August, which fortunately is still extant. Gomperz had evidently been in the depths of a depression for some time. On his return to Avignon from Bad Ischel, where he and Helen had left Gomperz, Mill wrote on 17 September below to tell him of their movements in Austria after they had parted, and their activities since, in three-and-a-half sentences of interesting detail that his son chose not to include.

Let me hear from you now and then. In J. Before Mill had posted this letter of 17 September, he had received a letter from Gomperz now lost that expressed great anxiety at not having heard about their safe return. Gomperz had apparently misread the signals of friendship that he had been receiving during their time together, and had begun to entertain romantic notions about a possibly permanent relation with Helen and her father. Gomperz apparently reached London in mid-February, , and Mill at once hastened to provide the new arrival with a letter of introduction, dated 20 February, to the Greek historian George Grote A below, previously unpublished.

On that same day, Mill also took the trouble to write to the editor of the Spectator B below, also previously unpublished to send him some information about the political situation in Austria that Gomperz had enclosed in an earlier letter. One must conclude that Mill hoped that the younger man would be pleasantly Edition: current; Page: [ xxii ] surprised, and encouraged in his endeavours, by seeing that some serious notice had been taken of his activities and his writings. Mill clearly made an effort to repay the hospitality shown to him and Helen in Austria the previous summer, unaware that his gestures of friendship might well be misconstrued by a young man with marriage on his mind.

Gomperz was invited on two consecutive Sunday evenings to dinner at Blackheath, where he met William Thornton and Thomas Hare. Mill and Helen apparently never mentioned to Gomperz that they were planning to leave for Avignon two days after the meeting in St. Gomperz then went off to Oxford, where he did, in fact, make some progress with his plans to study and edit tracings of manuscripts from Herculaneum, before experiencing a kind of breakdown towards the end of the month. His strange behaviour caused his new friends there to send for help from home, which arrived, apparently in the first week of June, in the person of his friend Eduard Wessel, but not before Gomperz had gone missing for a short time and caused some alarm.

The next note of invitation of 11 June below suggests that Mill, receiving no reply, went to call on Gomperz; the two phrases omitted from the letter as published by his son indicate that there was apparently some intervening arrangement proposed for the 12th, a dinner at Blackheath with Louis Blanc.

Introduction

When Blanc proved unavailable for that date, Mill wrote to suggest that Gomperz and Wessel come on Sunday, the 14th. The restoration of what may seem trivial omissions shows clearly that Mill was making an all-out effort to see the distressed young man. Distressed he most assuredly was, however, though apparently under control at the Sunday dinner party. This time, Mill understood what he was aiming at, and in his reply of 16 June very kindly, but firmly, suggested that he had no chance with Helen. I hope that nothing that has passed will make any difference in your friendly feelings towards Edition: current; Page: [ xxiv ] us, who remain unchanged to you.

He forthrightly asks Gomperz to explain to him in exactly what way he sees himself as misunderstood, so that the matter may be cleared up, and he gently reiterates the gospel of work, in proper doses, as the remedy for a great mind, greatly troubled. Nor did his active concern cease at that point. Gomperz apparently at once had a copy of the volume sent to Mill, without any Edition: current; Page: [ xxv ] personal communication; and Mill took the opportunity of a favourable notice in the Saturday Review to acknowledge and praise it, on 22 August.

Is such restraint possible in ordinary human nature? The Logic would occupy the first two volumes, and Mill volunteered to send the alterations he was making at the time for the seventh edition. He informed Gomperz that he had already given permission to Dr. Mill had also referred Wilhelm Sattler to Grosser about a translation of the work on Comte. Gomperz had apparently asked Mill whether he had seen F. Gomperz was sure, however, that it would be wise to keep the Examination back, at least at first.

The details are interesting, since they show that Gomperz now certainly wanted to take full charge and ensure that the translations would be of high quality. To all this effort and enthusiasm Mill responded warmly, in a letter of 23 April; 63 but before any volumes were published, the firm of Tendler went bankrupt later that year.

From Gomperz he appears to have received only an announcement of his marriage, which took place on 8 August of that year. On 23 October Mill replied with warm congratulations and a request for information, not for himself, but for an acquaintance, whose address he enclosed, who was anxious to discover how the system of secret voting actually functioned in those countries where it had been adopted. The edition was not mentioned.

Heinrich Gomperz claimed that he did not know why it had taken so long. It appears that none of these volumes was despatched as suggested, however, and that two more years elapsed before the publication of the second volume of the collected essays, because the publisher made difficulties about some of the subject matter.

He found it in the person of Sigmund Freud, who was recommended by his former philosophy professor, Franz Brentano, a colleague and friend of Gomperz at the University of Vienna.

These we have simply listed, in Appendix B, with a brief indication of the subject matter. Some of that explanation bears repeating here, however, to give proper context to the letters below. The Secretary was the senior official of the Company, and next to him was the Examiner, in charge of the office that had responsibility for drafting most of the despatches to India. The dual nature of this administration resulted in a complex procedural ritual for the handling of the correspondence with India, in which there were as many as six stages. An abstract of each despatch received from India was made in the department and circulated to the Chairman and Deputy Chairman the Chairs of the Court and the members of the relevant standing committee.

In delicate or difficult matters, the officer would take instruction from them before preparing the draft. If the President returned it unaltered, it moved directly to the departmental standing committee. The official draft was next discussed, possibly amended further, and passed by the Court of Directors stage 5. Then it returned once more to the Board as a whole for its official approval stage 6. If accepted, it was immediately despatched to India. All the opportunities for alterations to the drafts in this description suggest that changes were more common, and more substantive, than was in fact the case.

It was clearly in the best interests of the Company and of its officials and employees that unnecessary hitches or confrontations not occur in a procedure that was already slow and cumbersome enough, and matters were conducted so as to ensure a smooth passage of a draft through the system. In About half of the letters below to Cabell serve to illustrate stage 2 of the complicated processing of despatches.

In the first, he reports that no trace had been found of a project that was thought to have appeared in despatches some number of years earlier; in the second, he records success in locating an agreement of even more recent date than the one the Board had requested; in the third, he provides a direct answer to a question regarding the desirability of asking for an explanation from the local government. Most responses, however, are more complex than these. At issue was the case of Mordaunt Ricketts, the Resident at Lucknow, who had been dismissed for taking bribes and had left India before any other punitive action could be launched against him.

As was so frequently the case, the officials at home were having to judge after the fact whether a matter had been properly handled on the spot, what measures could or should have been taken to ensure a different outcome, and what recommendations ought to be made to direct policy in the future. The Board was considering the problem raised in the estate of the late postmaster at Ryepur by the questionable legitimacy of his children, who had been born before his marriage to their mother.

Gordon had apparently been told that, since the parents were Catholics, the provision of the Canon Law, by which a subsequent marriage of the parents legitimized the children, might be applicable. Though it was relevant in Scotland and France, whose laws were of Roman origin, it was not applicable in an English jurisdiction. In his capacity as drafter of political PCs, Mill was, technically, the voice of the Chairs, but it is certain that the contents of the despatches were very much of his own devising, a fact that is reflected, for example, in Cabell had written to ask whether, in composing a particular paragraph, Mill had given proper weight to the opinion of James Sutherland, the Political Agent at Gujerat, which presumably was included in the collection Cabell was examining.

Three letters in the collection illustrate the third stage in the processing of despatches, the consideration by the Chairmen of any alterations to the PCs made at the Board.

In the matter of treaties with native princes, discussed in In this situation, however, Mill saw no difficulty created; the Board would simply be informed of the new circumstances when the PC was sent to it a second time for final approval. Two other letters, In discussing the matter at issue, however, Mill relies on his own knowledge of the local rulers in making the objection:.

It strikes me that the plan suggested by the Board would never answer. It must end therefore in our managing the villages for both governments; which neither would like. The complications that could arise from the dual authority between the Board and the Court and the multiplicity of despatches are admirably illustrated in the problem created by Mr. Williams, the Resident and Commissioner at Baroda, which Mill discusses in The Board is to understand the delicacy of choosing the proper grounds for the dismissal.

A little face-saving all round is recommended in this matter.
