In den WarenkorbQuestionnaire, partly filled in by Darwin, from, "Translation of Scientific Memoirs' Committee", 2pp, 4to, minor sunning, good condition. NOT including the Printed Letter, p.[1], from H.W. Crosskey, explaining what the questionnaire is for ("Action for the Translation and Publication of Foreign Scientific Memoirs" to be put to t…he attention of the British Association). Signed on recto, two answers on verso.See Image.The questionnaire comprises four questions, with a final section headed "Remarks", the questions being, "1."Do you think it advisable that steps should be taken to secure the systematic translation and publication in English of all the more important foreign scientific memoirs; 2. If so [advisable] would the work be best accomplished: (a) by the formation of a Special Society or Committee for dealing with memoirs on all subjects; or (b) by the formation of separate Societies or Committees each dealing with one particular branch of science; or (c) by urging the existing scientific Societies to undertake the translation of the memoirs with which they are most nearly concerned? | 3. Would it be necessary, in your opinion, to translate memoirs in the French language? | 4. Should the work of translation be done voluntarily, or be paid for by a small fee; the name of the translator in either case being attached to his work?" Section 5 is headed "Remarks" (verso).DarwinHe answers Question 1. "I do not think it advisable. I[It] seems to me that no amount of translation (that is at all practicable) would do away with the necessity of being able to read french & german[sic]".No answers to questions 2 and 3 (left blank). Question 4 answer (rather conflicting with the earlier answer): "I think it should be paid for by a fairly good fee. The translations must (as pointed out in the pamphlet[?]) be made by those having special knowledge of the subject and I cannot help doubting whether such persons would undertake the drudgery of translation unless they were well paid."No Remarks. Note: A copy of the report based on this and other completed questionnaires, apparently the only one recorded, is at the National Library of Medicine (Bethesda, USA) . Despite valiant efforts (including being one hour's drive away) I have been unable to see it, or secure a copy: " Report presented by the council to the annual meeting of members, held in the library of the Medical Institute,October 8, 1885.

Section 5 is headed "Remarks" (verso).Japp:Question 1. He thinks the object desirable but needing a trial. He thinks it might be accomplished on a smaller scale than seems to be anticipated, starting with "memoirs of the highest importance".Question 2. "Probably by method c. In any case the chief difficulty is one of funds, as the undertaking could not be made to pay."Question 3. "No, and in the case of chemical memoirs it would hardly be necessary to translate those written in German, as the great majority of English scientific chemists have been partly trained in Germany & read German with facility."Question 4. "A small fee should be paid: voluntary work nearly always breaks down after the first enthusiasm has worn off, and the fee would, moreover, probably be a consideration to many whoi would undertake the work."No Remarks.

In den WarenkorbPrinted Circular Letter from H.W. Crosskey on behalf of the Birmingham Philosophical Society with Questionnaire from, 'Translation of Scientific Memoirs' Committee', dated 8 July 1886, 2 leaves, 4to, bifolium, minor staining, good condition. The Printed Letter, p.[1], from H.W. Crosskey, explains what the questionnaire is for ("…Action for the Translation and Publication of Foreign Scientific Memoirs" to be put to the attention of the British Association). The questionnaire comprises four questions, with a final section headed "Remarks", the questions being, "1."Do you think it advisable that steps should be taken to secure the systematic translation and publication in English of all the more important foreign scientific memoirs; 2.

Would it be necessary, in your opinion, to translate memoirs in the French language? | 4. Should the work of translation be done voluntarily, or be paid for by a small fee; the name of the translator in either case being attached to his work?" Section 5 is headed "Remarks" (verso).Lodge answers al the questions fully, and adds a full-page of notes on the blank verso of the first leaf.He answers Question 1. "Yes I do indeed. See opposite page" but he doesn't think all scientists can "be put on a level" distinguishing between geologists, biologists, chemists and physicists.For question 2. He answers each section (a,b,c) in turn, (a) unwieldy (explained briefly), (b) "is impracticable" (explained), (c) "Is the plan" - he elaborates.Question 3 answer: He comments on the easiness of French but difficulties in skimming. "Moreover the difficulty of scattering, or diverse publication applies to French as to the other literature. One wants things brought to a focus."Question 4 answer: He says it should be paid well to encourage "Demonstrators & the like" to do something which would be good for them. There should be a scale, and a tender system, and a weeding out of the incompetent.Remarks: "It is important for translators to know well the subject matter than the language. I doubt if translation can ever be quoted with the same confidence as the original." He elaborates on this, concluding "the translations should read fairly easily & not be repulsively barbarous."

He raises the issue of copyrights and suggests a name, "Society for the Promulgation in English of Foreign Literary Work in Science."Question 2. He makes suggestions about Committees, office-bearers, elections of distinguished scientists, and financing.Question 3. French is too widely known for this to be desirable, Italian being second easiest. Some meoirs in French are important enough to translate.Question 4. He discusses the art of translation (idiom etc), It should be paid for at "customary rates" [?] Supervision by individual societies necessary "without fee".Remarks: "The Foreign Memoirs' Society should consist of Members paying annual subscriptions towards defraying costs of Translation and Publication of Selected Writings."

Printed Letter, p.[1], from H.W. Crosskey, explaining what the questionnaire is for ("Action for the Translation and Publication of Foreign Scie…ntific Memoirs" to be put to the attention of the British Association). The questionnaire comprises four questions, with a final section headed "Remarks". Galton has answered in holograph only the first printed question (but filled a blank page (p.[2]with an "alternative plan"), the first question being, "Do you think it advisable that steps should be taken to secure the systematic translation and publication in English of all the more important foreign scientific memoirs?" Galton writes, "The matter to be dealt with being voluminous & much dependent on Illustration, I do not see how the cost of so vast an undertaking could be defrayed, or how its consistent management could be secured. Much more detailed information as to what is desired by the authors of the proposal seems to me to be wanted, before I could answer either 'yes' or 'no' to this question." The further printed questions, left blank by Galton, were: "2. If so [advisable] would the work be best accomplished: (a) by the formation of a Special Society or Committee for dealing with memoirs on all subjects; or (b) by the formation of separate Societies or Committees each dealing with one particular branch of science; or (c) by urging the existing scientific Societies to undertake the translation of the memoirs with which they are most nearly concerned? | 3.

Should the work of translation be done voluntarily, or be paid for by a small fee; the name of the translator in either case being attached to his work?" Section 5 is headed "Remarks" (final page) and Galton has written, "I have put on a separate paper (the opposite half sheet of this circular [a blank]) some brief [another word crossed out] remarks on an alternative plan, that might be worth considering in detail", details following:Twenty-seven lines of holograph outlining Galton's suggestions, commencing: "If the subject of translation should be discussed at all, I think the following idea might be worth consideration | A publication [ on financing] and under such management as that of the Phil: Mag: to take a part towards the memoirs of foreign scientific soc[iet]ies not unlike that taken by Hansard towards the Parliamentary debates [] not given in total but are yet authentic, [] I suppose the Editors to have full power to refuse wholly, or to cut parts out, and thus indirectly to exact good form & literaryu style.

No translation ['not' excised] to be published until a full [?year) after the original memoir." He believes that this would mean the articles would be both "condensed and original". That the publication would grow into an "International undertaking by which the chief scientific memoirs would be published in abstract in the chief continental languages. In this case authors w[oul]d think very highly of the opportunity, & w[oul]d take great pains with their Abstracts."
