Pierre Piotr Kropotkine (1842-1921), prince russe, géographe, anarchiste, théoricien du communisme libertaire. L.S. avec corrections autographes et un mot autographe, 3 juin 1912, 1p in-4. A Charles-François Cazenove (1870-1915), agent littéraire à Londres. « Dear Mr Cazenove, It doesn't suit me very well to make the corrections of "Fields Factories and Workshops" at once. Still, I take the work in hand to day, and I hope to be ready with it by the end of this month health permitting. Does Nelson know that there are some engravings in the book ? I am not quite sure that the old ones will be good enough. Perhaps new photographs will have to be made from my drawings ; one-by all means for the agricultural map of England and another for the comparative agricultural productivity of England, France and Belgium. As regards "The Conquest of Bread", I shall try to do the revision as soon as I can, so as to avoid any corrections in the proofs. Yours sincerely. P Kropotkine ». Kropotkine va corriger la nouvelle édition de Champs Usines et Ateliers et se mettra aussi à la correction de la nouvelle édition de La conquête du Pain, autre ouvrage particulièrement important du théoricien.

Pierre Piotr Kropotkine (1842-1921), prince russe, géographe, anarchiste, théoricien du communisme libertaire. L.S. avec quelques mots autographes, 6 mai 1912, 1p in-4. A Charles-François Cazenove (1870-1915), agent littéraire à Londres. Intéressante lettre : « Dear Mr Cazenove, I have received some time ago the enclosed from Messrs Chapman and Hall. Would you be so very kind as to look into that matter and to let me know if I have tu pay that amount for my authors corrections ? I was quite astonished to hear from Mr Rowntree that "Fields, Factories and Workshops" has sold so well. May I ask you to be so very kind as to let me know how many copies of the last edition are still in stock ? Did you signify at Swan and Sonnenshein the end of our agreement. With kindest regards. Yours sincerely. P Kropotkine ». Kropotkine s'enquiert donc de savoir si on lui fait payer le bon prix pour les corrections et où en est la vente d'un de ses principaux ouvrages, Champs Usines et Ateliers. Il y aura une nouvelle édition anglaise en 1912 qui est l'édition de référence. Beau document. [135]

A Charles-François Cazenove (1870-1915), agent littéraire à Londres. Intéressante lettre : « Dear Mr Cazenove, I am sending you herewith the first three chapters of the revised manuscript of Fields Factories and Workshops. Will you be so kind to transmit them to Messrs Nelson, and to let me know, to whom must I write, so as to be henceforth in a direct contact with the head of their editing department ? There are in these three chapters three maps. I shall send to the publishers the drawings from which the cliches can be made. These three chapters were the most difficult to revise, as they contain such a mass of figures. Therefore I hope to send another instalment by the fifteenth ; it will probably contain the remaning chapters and the Appendix. I will ask the publishers to send me the first proofs in slips. Although I do not intend to make corrections in the proofs, but there may be some additions. Believe me, dear Mr Cazenove. Yours truly sincerely. P Kropotkine ». Kropotkine travaille donc à la nouvelle édition d'un de ses principaux ouvrages, Champs Usines et Ateliers. Cette édition de 1912 est l'édition de référence. Beau document. [135]

A Charles-François Cazenove (1870-1915), agent littéraire à Londres. « Dear Sir, May I ask you kindly to send a copy of my "Fields, Factories, and Workshops" (the shilling edition if you have a copy left) to the following address. The Director of the Rothamsted Experimental Farm, Rothamsted, and to enclose this leaflet in the book, sending me at the same time the account. With tranks in advance. Yours truly. P Kropotkine ». Kropotkine envoie donc un exemplaire de son ouvrage à Edward John Russell (1872-1965), probablement au moment où celui-ci devient directeur de la ferme de Rothamsted. [135]

Pierre Piotr Kropotkine (1842-1921), prince russe, géographe, anarchiste, théoricien du communisme libertaire. L.S. avec corrections et large partie autographe, 20 mai 1912, 1p in-4 A Charles-François Cazenove (1870-1915), agent littéraire à Londres. « Dear Mr Cazenove, The Conquest of Bread. It is very pleasant news that Chapman and Hall are ready to issue a shilling edition of this book. The offer they make of a royalty of 1 œd a copy is quite satisfactory. It would be so even if it would be only 1d. As to revisions, I do not think there are any to be made. Still, before the printing begins I will carefully read the book over, and perhaps in the last chapter there may be some revision required of the figures, or in the shape of a few additions. As for the title, "The Conquest of Bread" is not quite satisfactory indeed. For France, it had a deeper meaning than it can have in English, this is why Elisée Reclus proposed it. In the German translation we took "well-Being for All" and in the Russian translation it was "Bread and Freedom". Perhaps none of these would be satisfactory. I will thing of it now, and write to you later on. Yours very truly, P Kropotkine. Very best thanks, dear M Cazenove, with the trouble you take with my books. I would be so pleased, indeed, to have a cheep edition of this one. Or - The Way to Well-being (The Conquest of Bread) ? ». Très intéressante lettre pour la nouvelle édition de son ouvrage. [135]

Pierre Piotr Kropotkine (1842-1921), prince russe, géographe, anarchiste, théoricien du communisme libertaire. L.S. avec corrections autographes et quelques mots autographes, 14 juillet 1906, 1p 1/2 in-4. Au journaliste et écrivain George Herbert Perris (1866-1920). Belle lettre sur sa participation à l'Encyclopaedia Britannica et ses droits d'auteur. « Dear Mr Perris, Could you be so kind as to give me an advise in a literary matter ? You know, perhaps, that I have written for the 9th edition of the "Encyclopaedia Britannica" all the Russian geographical articles, beginning with the letter "K". When they began the Times edition of the Supplement (they call it sometimes the 10th edition), I wrote also all geographical articles of the Supplement for the whole of the Russian Empire. Now they intend to make a new edition of the "Britannica" for which everythinh will be carefully revised, & they ask me yo undertake this work for the Geography of Russia. They wish it to be done all with a rapidity (before the end of 1906) and in conditions which I very probably will not be able to accept, - and now this question arises : - supposing that someone else undertakes Russia for the new edition, have they the right to utilise my articles ? These articles of mine represent original work, in which I have expressed certain ideas of my own. Can now somebody, perhaps some ignorant contributor, alter these articles at his fancy, & make me say, perhaps, quite the opposite of what I have said ? Supposing the owners of the "Encyclopaedia" possess the copyright of my articles, - Does "copyright" mean that they only have right of publishing these articles of mine such as they are, or only with those alterations which I agree to ? Has there been some precedent in the matter which you happen to know of ? It seems pretty evident that the owner of the copyright ought to have no such rights. But there may be perhaps some special rights in Dictionaries and Encyclopaedias ? You would very much oblige me, dear Mr. Perris, if you could give me some hint upon this subject. With very best and kindest regards. Yours sincerely. P Kropotkine ». Belle lettre. [135]
