Letter to Nikolai Danielson, November 9, 1871
First published: in Russian, in Minuvshiye gody, St Petersburg, 1908.
Published in Marx-Engels Collected Works, Volume 44
To Nikolai Danielson in St Petersburg
[London,] 9 November 1871[edit source]
Dear Friend,
Enclosed are a few changes [to the Russian translation of Capital], some of them just printing errors. Of some importance, however, are the changes on p. 192, p. 201, p. 288, Note 205a, and p. 376, which affect the content.
It would be pointless to wait for the revision of Chapter I, since for months now my time has been so taken up that I have not been able to get to my theoretical work (and the foreseeable future holds out small prospect of an improvement in this respect).
*Certainly, I shall one fine morning put a stop to all this but there are circumstances where you are in duty bound to occupy yourselves with things much less attractive than theoretical study and research.
My warmest thanks for all the kindness I have met with on your part. The writings of Ehrlieb I am partly acquainted with. I compare him as a writer to Lessing and Diderot.
I have received some curious numbers of the Moscow Gazette.
Yours truly,*
A. W.
