hoping to remain there for many years. But
for that very reason I should not like to go,
until I feel I deserve your good opinion, and
am able to create a favourable impression.
I have written to Weierstrass to-day, asking
whether he does not think it wiser for me to
remain with him for two or three months more,
in order to possess myself more thoroughly of
his ideas, and to fill up the blanks which may
still be left in my knowledge of mathematics.
‘These two months in Berlin would also be
of great advantage to me, in helping me to
get into touch with the young mathematicians
who are finishing their studies, or beginning their
career as lecturers, and with whom I used to
be closely connected during my last visit to
Berlin. I might even arrange to exchange
lessons with some of them, and undertake
myself to expound the theory of the transformations
of the Abel-functions, which they do not know,
and which I have studied thoroughly. This
would offer me an opportunity of lecturing,
which, hitherto, I have not had at all, and I
should come to Stockholm in January much
more sure of myself.’
