  <dc:title>Copy letter, from Sir John Herschel to Herbert Spencer, dated at Collingwood</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Copy of letter, copied as part of the correspondence project led by Colonel John Herschel FRS following the death of his father. Will subscribe to Herbert Spencer's work as requested [see Herbert Spencer's 1860-3-5], but dissents 'from very large portions' of Herbert Spencer's views. Especially objects to Herbert Spencer's adoption of the 'Shibboleth of the Hegel &amp; Schelling School of German Philosophy—the Absolute."' [This letter misdated; correct date: 1860-3-17.]"</dc:description>
