BB. Richard Aldington

14. To Earl Miner, 1951. Quoted in Miner (A25), 1958, pp. 159-60.

Aldington’s letters acknowledge a debt to ukiyoe and translations of poems from them in the British Museum Print Room (see 3), and mention specifically the use of Japanese materials in The River (see 2) and Insouciance (9a). Miner does not mention the number or dates of letters from Aldington, but Gates (see 16) lists three, of 30 January, 24 February, and 4 April 1951. These would be in the Miner Papers at UCLA (CB3).
