Description

A comprehensive collection of letters exchanged by Bentham with notable figures worldwide from 1828 until his death in 1832. The Correspondence of Jeremy Bentham, Volume 13 contains authoritative and fully annotated texts of all known and publishable letters sent both to and from Bentham between 1st July 1828 and his death on 6th June 1832. In addition to 474 letters, the volume contains three memorandums concerning Bentham's health shortly before his death, his last will and testament, and extracts from both the autobiography and the manuscript diaries of Bentham's nephew George. Among the letters that have already been published, most are drawn from the edition of The Works of Jeremy Bentham, prepared under the superintendence of Bentham's literary executor John Bowring. A small number of letters have been reproduced from newspapers and periodicals. This volume publishes, for the first time, the entire extant correspondence between Bentham and Daniel O'Connell, the Irish Liberator. Other new acquaintances include the barrister and law reformer, Charles Sinclair Cullen, and the Real Property Commissioner, John Tyrrell. Throughout the period, Bentham maintained regular contact with old friends and connections, but he also engaged in sporadic correspondence with such leading figures in government as the Duke of Wellington, Robert Peel, and Henry Brougham. Further afield, Bentham corresponded, amongst others, with the Marquis de La Fayette in France, Edward Livingston in the United States of America, and Jos� Del Valle in Guatemala.
