| Title | Letter from G H [Godfrey Harold] Hardy, Trinity College, Cambridge, to [Joseph] Larmor |
| Creator | Hardy; Godfrey Harold (1877-1947); British mathematician |
| Recipient | Larmor; Sir Joseph (1857-1942); Irish theoretical physicist |
| Date | c.1918-1919 |
| Description | He does not like the idea of Hill becoming President [of the London Mathematical Society] as 'we should not go beyond a certain level of ignorance and stupidity'. He suggests that [Thomas John I'Anson] Bromwich should become President, although they would lose an excellent Secretary. Bromwich has been too busy to do much of the work, at present only minutes and a little correspondence. There should be no difficulty in finding a Secretary, and he suggests Chapman or Nicholson. Bromwich has had more work and less recognition than he deserves, but Hardy will take no action until he hears from Larmor. |
