Has nearly finished the chapter on medieval philosophy. Has found it difficult with the space limitation. Would like to change the title from 'Scholastic and Medieval Thought' to 'Philosophy in the Middle Ages' as he feels the relation 'scholastic' to 'medieval' is rather a controversial point.

Has decided, due to advanced age, to withdraw from undertaking the chapter on education in CMH. Discusses sources available for research into the subject and a bibliography on the subject he has compiled which could be lent to the eventual author of the chapter.

Gives thanks for the letter and finds the offer very tempting. Knows enough of the subject, especially the development of papalist theories, to be able to undertake the work.
