THE CAMBRIDGE HISTORY OF SCIENCE
volume 7
The Modern Social Sciences
Volume7ofThe Cambridge History of Scienceprovides a history of the con-
cepts, practices, institutions, and ideologies of the social sciences (including
behavioral and economic sciences) since the eighteenth century. The authors
offer original, synthetic accounts of the historical development of social
knowledge, including its philosophical assumptions, its social and intellectual
organization, and its relations to science, medicine, politics, bureaucracy,
religion, and the professions. The43chapters include inquiries into the
genres and traditions that formed social science, the careers of the main
social disciplines (psychology, economics, sociology, anthropology, political
science, geography, history, and statistics), and international essays on social
science in Eastern Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The volume also
features essays examining the involvement of the social sciences in gov-
ernment, business, education, culture, and social policy. This is a broad
cultural history of social science that analyzes the participation of the social
disciplines in the making of the modern world. The contributors, world
leaders in their respective specialities, engage with current historiographical
and methodological controversies and stake out positions of their own.
Theodore M. Porter is Professor of the History of Science in the Department
of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. He is the author of
The Rise of Statistical Thinking,1820–1900(1986)andTrust in Numbers: The
Pursuit of Objectivity in Science and Public Life(1995) and coauthor ofThe
Empire of Chance: How Probability Changed Science and Everyday Life(1989).
Dorothy Ross is the Arthur O. Lovejoy Professor of History at Johns Hopkins
University. She is the author ofG. Stanley Hall: The Psychologist as Prophet
(1972) and The Origins of American Social Science(1991) and editor of

Azután meg rájuk förmed az őrökre, hogy minek hoznak ide
virágokat? mikor azoknak a kigőzölgése mérges! «Ő» neki az
megárt.
Az őrültség makacs szelleme riasztá meg ekkor: «mit zavarod
meg az én eszmejárásomat virágokkal? Hisz a tengeren vagyunk!
Hol terem itt a virág?»
Többé nem volt szabad semmi virágot bevinni szobájába.
Az őrültek gyűlölik mindazt, a mi rögeszméjüknek ellentmond.
Követelte, hogy neki függő ágyat vigyenek be a szobájába; mert
a mult éjjel is kiesett az ágyából, mikor a forgószél úgy meghányta a
hajót.
Ez is csak ravaszság volt tőle. Nem akart alkalmatlan lenni annak,
a ki ott abban a lefüggönyözött ágyban fekszik.
Az pedig eljött hozzá mindennap. Mindennap.
Eljött hozzá mély tenger fenekéről, üdvözültek mennyországából,
halál sötét birodalmából.
Nem volt már semmije a világon. De ez az egy megmaradt neki.
Ez az «enyim». Ez az örökké «enyim». Ez a halál után is, ez a más
világon is az «enyim!»
Mikor a «Tied» és az «Övé» miatt elvesztette lelkét, ez az
«Enyim», ki maga is lélek már, felfogta azt és megtartá magának, és
eljárt szomorú éjszakájának világosságot hozni.
És aztán a beteg lerajzolja az eléje jövőt mindannyiféle alakban,
a hányban az élet megörökíté őt emlékezetében.
Lerajzolja őt, a kisdeddel ölében, a hogy a dudai paplak udvarán
eléje lépett először. Mi lett aztán abból a kisdedből? az ki van törölve
lelkéből.

Lerajzolja őt, a mint a sziklameredélyen áll, kérdezve, hogy
szabad-e tiszta lélekkel keresni a halált?
Lerajzolja őt, mint szabadító angyalát, midőn a torlasz alól az
aléltat kiemeli.
Lerajzolja őt, ama végzetes éjszakán, a leégett lakban, mint
menyasszonyát.
Lerajzolja őt, mint hősnőt, az Alligator fedélzetén, midőn a
kapitányt rábeszéli férje megmentésére.
Lerajzolja őt, mint szenvedő beteget, ki utazó társainak előadást
tart.
Lerajzolja őt, mint kertésznőt, délvirágok közepett, egészséges
deli alakként.
Lerajzolja őt, mint bűbájos édes anyát, a mosolygó gyermekkel
ölében.
És nem kérdi tőle: hová lett a gyermek?
Megmondta ezt neki ő már régen! Ez otthon maradt a korall-
grottában, s tanulja a kagylóktól – a gyöngytermesztést.
Egész albumot képeznek már az ő képei, miket róla rajzolt.
S mind hasonlítanak hozzá.
Ő maga pedig napról-napra rosszabbul hasonlít magához.
Fogy, összemegy, elhanyatlik.
Esténkint, mikor magára van, dalra fakad.
«Cserebogár, sárga cserebogár!
Nem kérdem én tőled, mikor lesz nyár?»…
Ő

… Ő a contra hangot énekli. Hisz a prima azé a másiké, a ki a
sopránt énekli. Csak ő hallja azt! Annak sekundál. Ő csak kiséri azt!
«Azt sem kérdem, sokáig élek-e?
Csak azt mondd meg: rózsámé leszek-e?»
… Azé lész te nemsokára!
Egy napon azt mondta Incze Leonak, hogy küldjön hozzá orvost,
mert neje nagyon beteg.
Ő maga volt az, a ki alig tudott már a lábán állani.
A főorvos egy másik társát küldte hozzá. Őt ismerte már, mint
kapitányt s nem fogadta el orvosnak.
A tapasztalt gyógyász látta, hogy mi a baj. Belement az
elmebeteg eszmejárásába. Kikérdezte a láthatatlan alakot s aztán
félrehívta a férjet és tudtára adta, hogy a baj igen komoly. Könnyen
veszélyessé válhatik. Fog rendelni számára orvosságot. Hanem egy
nagy baj van a beteggel. Nincs bizalma az idegen orvoshoz. Azt
hiszi, hogy az meg akarja őt mérgezni. Pedig hát ime, tekintsen bele
a recipébe. Bizonyosan ismerni fogja a vényeket. Látandja, hogy
nincsenek azok tulságos nagy adagokban rendelve. Hiszen a legtöbb
gyógyszer bizony méreg, egyszerre nagy mennyiségben bevéve.
Opium, hyosciamus, digitalis, laurocerasus, arsenicum, bizony nem
csemegefélék: de okosan elosztva mégis gyógyszerek. Megtehetné a
férj azt az áldozatot, hogy a nejének rendelt gyógyszereket maga
megkóstolná elébb, hogy bizalmat költsön benne is irántuk.
Incze megigérte, hogy «ő érte» megteszi ezt az áldozatot.
Így lehetett kegyes csalás útján egy kis gyógyszert bevetetni
vele.

Az használni is látszott neki. Legalább kínzó, sorvasztó lázai
elmultak. Az a remény volt, hogy ha ki lehet őt csalni tavaszszal, a jó
idők alatt a szabadba, az üde lég, a megújult természet jótékony
hatással lesz szétdult idegrendszerére.
De lehetetlen volt őt kicsalni szobájából. Nem akarta otthagyni
azt a kedves fantómot. Az pedig nem mehetett ki vele. Aztán hová?
Hisz itt hajón vagyunk, s köröskörül a tenger. Sétálhat valaki a
tengeren?
Megkisérték őt előkészíteni a változásra. Leo, kit folyvást
kapitányának fogadott el, mindennap meglátogatta s mindennap
hirül hozá neki, hogy hány tengerészmérfölddel vannak közelebb a
szárazföldhöz.
Ebből baj is támadt.
Mert a mint Leo a historiához hű akarván maradni, azt mondá
neki, hogy nemsokára ki fognak kötni San-Francisconál, Incze
indulatba jött: tiltakozott, hogy ő nem akar menni Amerikába! Neki
ott semmi keresete nincsen. Tehát megint vissza kellett őt hozni
Európába. S az nem ment olyan hirtelen.
Az őrültnek térképe is volt s ő tudta, hogy a leggyorsabb gőzhajó
hány mérföldet haladhat egy nap a tengeren. Annál többet nem volt
szabad hazudni Leonak, ha ki nem akarta dobatni magát.
Az orvos végre kénytelen volt neki a rajzolást megtiltani: azon
ürügy alatt, hogy a beteget nyugtalanítja vele. Azt tanácsolta neki,
hogy inkább sakkozzék vele.
Akkor aztán hozatott Incze egy kis sakkozó asztalt: azt
odaállította az ágy mellé s egész nap játszott vele egyedül.
Ha jött valaki, annak mosolyogva mondá, hogy egyetlen egy
játszmát sem tud megnyerni tőle. Serena lángész a sakkjátékban.
Mindenkit megver!

Walter Leo egész családjával Bécsbe költözött, azért, hogy Inczét
ápolhassa. Néha a fiát is elvitte hozzá, hogy hegedüljön neki. Azt
még legjobban szerette Incze.
A hegedűművészt is ismerte ő jól; csakhogy ő nála is két
emberből csinált egyet. Reményi Edének tartotta őt, kit a
szabadságharcz alatt hordott magával a magyar fővezér, s ki akkor
varázs nyirettyüjével gyakran elfeledteté a harczfiakkal a honfi
gondokat.
Most ezt látta Walter Leo fiában személyesülve.
Szegény fiunak pedig sok baja volt vele; mert azt követelte tőle,
hogy mindazokra a dolgokra emlékezzék, a mik vele az egész
hadjárat alatt történtek, s ha belesült, összeczigányozta s kikergette
magától.
Pedig a zene oly jótékony ír volt lelkére e kietlen világban.
Egy éjjel, késő órában jött Döblingből sürgető izenet Walter
Leohoz, hogy siessen rögtön barátjához, mert ez ismét a dühöngés
korszakába esett, s őt hivja.
Leo sietett, a mily gyorsan csak lovai vihették.
Incze szobája előtt már akkor kényszereszközökkel készen álltak
a betegápolók s az orvos tanácsolá neki, hogy elébb nézzen be a
kémlyukon a szobába.
A beteg nyugtalan léptekkel járt alá s fel, szilaj, dühös tekintete
volt, mint egy veszett állatnak; felső kabátját, nyakkendőjét már
levetette. Majd czipőit is lerúgta, azok is égették. Mezítláb tombolt és
ökleivel hadonázott, néha a homlokát ütötte.
Leo bátran nyitott be hozzá, s keményen rászegezve tekintetét,
egyenesen feléje ment.

– Mi baj már megint? kiálta rá erőteljes hangon.
A hang magához téríté a tébolyultat. Megállt egy helyben,
S azzal kezét kinyujtva az üres ágy felé, melyről már le voltak
tépve a függönyök, így szólt:
– Nézze ön: Ő nincs itt többé. Ő elhagyott engem! Álmomból
keltem fel megnézni, hogy van ő? s nem találtam őt itt többé.
Elhagyott engem, a míg aludtam. Itt hagyott hűtlenül és én nem
tudom, hogy hová lett! Meg tudott csalni engemet! Ő!
– Incze! Kedves! szólt Leo egy perczre elfelejtkezve szerepéről e
szomorú színjátszásban.
– Eh! mit szól ön? Hisz nincsen itt! Hát nem látja ön, hogy
nincsen itt! Az ágy üres!
Azzal odarohant az ágynak, vánkosokat, párnát, derekaljat
egyenkint kiszórt belőle s aztán haját tépve ordítá, mikor már nem
volt mit kiszórni onnan:
– Az én nőm megszökött tőlem!
Leo egy merész heroicus rendszabályra szánta el magát.
Odaugrott a dühöngőhöz, befogta a száját mind a két kezével, s
haragosan förmedt reá.
– Hallgat ön mindjárt! S nem ordítozik olyan tele torokkal! Hát
elment önnek az esze? Azt akarja, hogy bolondnak tartsák? Hát illik
ez: egy tisztességes férjnek így kiabálni a feleségéről, hogy
megszökött, azért mert nincs a szobában? No drága mulatság volna,
ha minden ember, valahányszor a felesége nincs a háznál,
mindannyiszor kiszaladna az utczára, fellármázni a szomszédokat,
hogy elszökött a feleségem! fogják meg, hozzák haza!
Az őrült meg volt lepetve; elmeredő tekintettel bámult Leora s azt
mondá:
Ú

– Úgy-e?
– Hát persze, hogy úgy! Hát illik ez öntől, kikiabálni magáról,
hogy rászedett férj lett, s a feleségéről, a leghívebb asszonyról a föld
kerekén, hogy ő hűtelen?
– Igazán? Azt mondja ön is, hogy ő a leghívebb asszony a
világon? De hát hol van ő most?
– Akárhol van, bizonyosan jó helyen van. Volt ő már öntől máskor
is távol. Mikor katona volt ön és elhagyta, mert csatába kellett
mennie, akkor nem féltette úgy-e? Mikor el volt fogva s vinni akarták
tőle erővel, nem ő mozdított-e meg önért egy félvilágot, hogy
kiszabadítsa, s megint egyesülhessen vele? Hát mikor az egész
földteke volt önök között; ön egy évig nem látta őt, s mégis olyan
bizonyos volt a hűségéről, mint a mennybeli üdvösségről! Ezt mind
elfelejtette már? Hát ki az a nő, a kit ön félt? Egy háremhölgy? Egy
kalandornő? Egy bérelt szerető? Micsoda? Óh nem! Úgy-e? Hát mi?
Egy szent! Egy hitvestárs! Vajh igen! Ugy-e? No hát legyen Istennel
és ne lázongjon. Akárhol jár, legyen bizonyos, hogy ott is önért jár…
Most aztán már zokogott az őrült keservesen, s elkezdte a kiszórt
ágynemüket visszarakni helyükre; minden egyes darabot
megcsókolva gyöngéden, mintha bocsánatot kérne tőlük az
elkövetett sérelemért. Minden vánkost egyenkint arczához szorított
gyöngéden.
– Igaza van önnek, suttogá Leóhoz. Én nem vagyok eszemnél. Én
rosszul tettem most. Megsértettem őt nagyon. Megérdemleném,
hogy megvessen érte. Kérem, ne mondja ezt el neki. Ne beszélje el
senkinek.
Aztán hozzátette suttogva:
– Ha haza fog jönni, egy szóval sem fogom tőle kérdezni, hogy
hol volt. El fogja ő azt mondani úgyis! Meglássa ön, hogy mindent el
fog mondani nekem.
És a közben megvetette az ágyat.

– Milyen hideg lett ez az ágy! nyöszörgé. Most azt teszem,… hogy
belefekszem magam… megmelegítem a számára, a míg megjön…
hogy ne fázzék benne… olyan… nagyon…
Azzal összeroskadt eszméletlenül. Leo karjai fogták fel. Ez a
kitörés volt az utolsó küzdelme az életerőnek a megsemmisülés
csodamunkája ellen.
Másnap, mikor meglátogatta Inczét Leo, már az ágyban fekve
találta őt.
Ki volt fogyva az élet olaja! A délczeg hősnek nem volt annyi
ereje, hogy el birja az ágyat hagyni többé.
Keskeny kis nyoszolya volt. Egy ember számára szabva. Annak a
legszélére huzódott ki a benne fekvő.
Mikor Leot meglátta, valami nyugodt boldogságérzet mosolya
derengett át arczán. Inte neki, hogy üljön le ágya mellé.
Ápolói magukra hagyták őket.
Akkor megfogta Leo kezét, odavonta a keblére, s lassan,
óvatosan leereszté azt oda, tenyerével lefelé fordítva.
Aztán örvendő mosolylyal mondá:
– Nos. Érzi ön, ugy-e?
Leo érzett valamit. Azt, hogy alig dobogott már a szíve.
– Érzi ugy-e, az ő kezét itt a mellemen? Alszik s altában megölelt.
Önnek igaza volt, látja. Abban, a mit tegnap mondott nekem. Hogy
akárhol jár ő, ott is bizonyosan én értem jár… Úgy volt… Még hajnal
előtt hazajött… Úgy bevilágította az alakjával az egész szobát…
Valami zöld ruha volt rajta, mint mikor a napsugár átszürődik a
szőlőlugas levelein… Soha sem láttam én olyan színt… Ide jött

csendesen az ágyához… Levetkőzött… Befonta a haját… Mintha
aranyat meg selymet font volna össze… Imádkozott… Azután beszélt
valamit; de az nem beszéd volt, hanem zene… Mégis megértettem…
Idehajolt hozzám, azt nézte, hogy alszom-e?… Úgy tettem, mintha
alunnám… Pedig a szemei ragyogását éreztem a lehúnyt
szempilláimon keresztül… Akkor megcsókolt, hogy felébreszszen…
Aztán odabújt mellém… Azt mondta, hogy milyen jól esik neki, hogy
ilyen meleg ágyat talál… Ezt jól tettem… Meg volt vele elégedve…
Nem kérdeztem tőle, hol járt?… Egy szóval sem… Emlékeztem
fogadásomra… Egyszer aztán ő maga kezdte el… Tudtam én azt…
«Tudod-e, hol jártam én most?»… «Mondjad, édes.»… «Gondolod-e,
kitalálnád-e, a hol én jártam?»… Nos, captain! barátom, kitalálja-e
ön? rájön-e arra gondolatra?… Ugy-e nem?… Én sem találtam azt
ki… Akkor aztán megsugta szépen… «ott voltam a mi kis lakunkban
odalenn… a hol kis fiunk vár reánk… az isis és antipathes grottában,
a veres és fekete korallokból épült lakásban… körülnézni, hogy
elférünk-e abban mind a hárman?… Elférünk mind a hárman!»…
Walter Leonak minden idegerejét meg kellett feszítenie, hogy a
köny ki ne csorduljon szemeiből.
Viszi őt már magával az a fényes árnyék…
A beteg folytatá:
– Még többet is beszélt… Hogy a tengernek zöld firmamentuma
van. Az is olyan, mint az égbolt… A kik látják megnyilni a kék
mennykárpitot, azoknak megnyilik majd az a sötétzöld égkupola is…
S az üdv sugára lesüt egész a tengerfenékig s a kagylók ragyognak
benne, mint a drága-kövek… Ott fogunk várni a mi
világosságunkra… Oda jön le értünk az a fényes alak, a kinek ő
megfogadta, hogy úgy fog neki egykor visszaadni, oly tisztán, oly
fehéren, mint a hogy oltára mellől elvett… Nem az oceán végtelen
hulláma mos engem olyan tisztára, fehérre, hanem az ő végtelen
szerelme…

Ezzel a szóval befelé fordult, megölelte a láthatatlan alakot és
elaludt.
Másnap ismét meglátogatta őt Leo.
Mindennap egy évtized különbséget mutat arczán.
– Captain!… monda Leonak lankadozott hangon… Mi nem
utazunk már együtt messze… Nőm nagyon beteg… alig lélekzik
már… Szivére teszem kezemet s elszámlálom az érütést… Negyven
egy percz alatt.
Saját érverése volt az.
– Captain! Ön tudja azt jól, hogy nekünk kettőnknek van egy
lelkünk… Nem olyan ritkaság ez… Hajdan, mikor könyvtárakban
laktam, egész foliánsokat olvastam olyan emberekről, a kiknél
kettőnek jutott egy lélek…
Legtöbbnyire nő és férfi szokott lenni… de vannak esetek, hogy
két férfi, vagy két nő bir egy lélekkel… Néha ikertestvéreknél fordul
ez elő… Rendes dolog az összenőtt ikreknél… Azoknak ugyanegy
perczben kell meghalniok; mert kettőjöknek van egy lelkük… Így volt
az új-szőnyi összenőtt ikerleányoknál… így a siami ikertestvéreknél.
Az őrültek szeretik kedvencz rögeszméiket tudományos
idézetekkel támogatni.
– Nekünk is kettőnknek van egy lelkünk… folytatá a kór. A mint
kedvesem szíve utolsót dobban: az enyém is megáll… Hol járunk
most captain?… Adja ön ide a térképet.
A beteg kiterjeszteté ágya fölé a térképet s elaszott kezének
újjával keresett rajta valami helyet.

– Itt van captain… Ez itt a White sziget… Ez itt a Barton Cliff…
Mikor e kettő közé érünk, ottan van nekünk az otthon… Messze még
odáig?… Még húsz mértföld a számítás szerint… Akkor holnap már
helyben leszünk…
Leo nem tudta kiállani e szavakat: félrefordítá arczát.
– Figyeljen rám… captain… ne érzékenykedjék… mit tesz az?…
két utazóval kevesebb; semmi más… Nem nem… bocsásson meg…
On minket nagyon szeretett mind a kettőnket… Legyen áldva érte.
Ön minket salutáltatni fog ágyulövéssel, félárboczra felhúzott
lobogóval s aztán, mikor egyedül lesz, nem látja senki, akkor meg
fog siratni… Legyen boldog az életben!
Most arra kérem önt, hogy a mint halva leszünk, mindkettőnket
göngyöltessen ugyanazon darab vitorlába; lábainkhoz varrasson egy
ágyúgolyót… de az ő arczát ne varrassa oda a vászonhoz tengerész
szokás szerint, azt ne érje semmi sértés… e szép madonna-arczot!…
És azután, mikor a White sziget nyugati csúcsa és Barton Cliffe közé
ér a hajó, ott bocsáttasson le bennünket a tengerbe… hadd menjünk
haza a mi kis fiunkhoz,… a ki mi reánk vár… God bye captain…
üdvözölje nevünkben mindazokat, a kik rólunk megemlékeznek… A
mi kis vagyonom maradt, osztassa ki azok között… a kik nek valami
bánatuk van… Holnap, ha eljön ön ismét egymás mellett fekve fog
bennünket találni… csendesen… szótlanul… Talán addig sem tart…
Már alig ver a szíve… Serena!… Alszol-e?… Melyikünk… öleli meg… a
másikat… utoljára?…
Ezzel megszünt dobogni egy nagy nemes szív, mely nagy
erényeiért nagy jutalmakat vett, nagy botlásaiért nagyon
megszenvedett…
Hibája is az volt, a mi az erénye: – férfi volt s asszonyt szeretett.

Walter Leo barátjának adott igéretét híven beváltá.
A holttestet egy ólomkoporsóba záratta le, s azt maga vitte el
vasúton Hamburgig; ott hajót bérelt a számára s elszállítá azt a
csatornán keresztül egész a White szigetig. Csak Helene kisérte őt,
és fia még.
Ott, a Barton Cliffe láttávolában felhúzatta a félárboczra a
lobogót, hat lövést adatott az ágyúkkal s azzal lebocsáttatá az
ólomkoporsót barátja hült tetemével: – hadd keresse fel kedveseit az
isis és antipathes tündér grottájában.
Higyjük, hogy rájuk talált!…

1.F.
1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend
considerable effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe
and proofread works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating
the Project Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project
Gutenberg™ electronic works, and the medium on which they may
be stored, may contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to,
incomplete, inaccurate or corrupt data, transcription errors, a
copyright or other intellectual property infringement, a defective or

damaged disk or other medium, a computer virus, or computer
codes that damage or cannot be read by your equipment.

discover a defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving

electronically, the person or entity providing it to you may choose to
give you a second opportunity to receive the work electronically in
lieu of a refund. If the second copy is also defective, you may
demand a refund in writing without further opportunities to fix the
problem.

warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be

any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or
additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any
Defect you cause.
Section 2. Information about the Mission
of Project Gutenberg™
Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers.
It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and
donations from people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will

remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a
secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help,
see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
www.gutenberg.org.

501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification

Section 4. Information about Donations to
the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
Foundation
Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can
be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the
widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many

small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to
maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and
keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in
locations where we have not received written confirmation of
compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of
compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate.
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where
we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no
prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in
such states who approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of
other ways including checks, online payments and credit card
donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.
Section 5. General Information About
Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.
Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org.
This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how
to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
