  • Samenvatting
    THE FRENCHMAN JOSEPH CHARLES HIPPOLYTE CROSSE was The Frenchman Joseph Charles Hippolyte
    Crosse educated as a lawyer but dedicated his whole life to malacology. He joined the editorial board of the
    Journal de Conchyliologie in 1861 and was managing director of the journal until his death in 1898. He was
    thus one of the spiders in the web of late 19th century malacology and had a core position to make a great
    contribution to this discipline. We have reconstructed his legacy with the help of archival sources and found
    his type material in the historical collections of several museums.
    The resulting monograph includes three volumes, of which this is the last one. This volume is made up of
    four parts.
    In the first part we present the letters written by Italian correspondents. Besides letters from Benoit,
    Monterosato, Tapparone Canefri, and Tiberi, we draw attention to the letters that Crosse exchanged with the
    Marquise Paulucci. This two-sided correspondence is complete and gives an unique picture of their mental and
    material exchanges.
    In the second part the correspondence from the United Kingdom is treated. Letters are included from the
    Adams brothers, Angas, Blanford, Damon, Jeffreys, and the Sowerbys, to mention a few.
    The third part deals with correspondents from America, highlighting letters from Binney, Bland, Dall, and
    Tryon.
    The final part provides corrections and additions to several chapters in the preceding volumes.

Fragment

Chapter 16, the first chapter in this volume, gives a spe-
cial insight into the correspondence of Crosse, as in the
Florence archives the letters written by Crosse have been
traced. This unique example gives a two-sided view of
the exchange of thoughts and material between Crosse
and his main Italian correspondent, the Marquise Paul-
ucci. Other correspondents are Benoit, Monterosato, Tap-
parone Canefri and Tiberi.
Chapter 17 deals with the correspondents from the
United Kingdom. This effectively means correspondents
from England and Scotland, in total 30 persons.
Chapter 18 examines a selection of correspondents
from the United States of America. It includes well-known
malacologists like Binney, Bland, A.D. Brown, Dall, Prime
and Tryon.
To finish with the final Chapter 19 gives some correc-
tions to the previous two volumes, as well as additions.
We were fortunate to find in the Senckenberg archive
many interesting portraits, of which a number are repro-
duced herein. Last but not least, we announce the acqui-
sition of the ‘Crosse archive’ by the Natural History
Museum in London, where it will be housed in its Library
and Archives section. We stress the importance of housing
such an important archive in a public depository, and are
very glad that it has found a new home in London. ×
