Rudolf Carnap an C. K. Ogden, 19. März 1934 März 1934

I am pleased to have your letter of March 10 and to see from it that you will make a talk with Kegan PaulIKegan Paul, Verlag about my bookB1937@The Logical Syntax of Language, London, 1937. You say that the book will be a Psyche “Monograph“IPsyche Monographs. What is that? You did not ever say anything about the Psyche “Monographs“IPsyche Monographs and I do not see any advertisement of them in Psyche or in the Psyche “Miniatures“IPsyche Miniatures. Are the “Monographes“IPsyche Monographs designed only for the future or are there already such ones?

In your letter of dec. 4, 1933, you said about a possible payment of £ 15 or 20. For my interests it would be better if two separated amounts were fixed: one for the first-printed parts, (which are taken out from the German form, and which you will put back as you said in your letter) and the second for the right of putting the other parts into English. That is because I will have to give a certain part of the second amount to SpringerPSpringer, Julius der Jüngere, 1880–1968, dt. Verleger; but the first amount would be for myself only. Would it be possible to make the agreement in such a way that the first amount is, say, £ 10, and the second £ 20 (or £ 15)? Now in your last letter you do not say about one payment but about payments year by year. Will that say that the payments will be fixed one time for all, or will they be dependent on the number of books given out during the year?

On March 29 I will go to Vienna for some days. If I will have your proposal till then, I will make a talk with SpringerPSpringer, Julius der Jüngere, 1880–1968, dt. Verleger about it.

I am very happy that the “Orthological Institute“IOrthological Institute, C.K. Ogden gave me the books free, as you say in your kind letter.
