Excerpt from BurnsMy thanks are also due to Mr Charles Brasch for per mission to reprint those parts of Chapters V and VI which originally appeared in a New Zealand Quarterly; to the University of New Zealand, for a research grantwith which I purchased microfilm material; to Mr Samuel Marshak, Professor S. Orlov and Miss S. Kolmakova for sending me Russian works on Burns; to Herr W.
