Scope and Content

Correspondence with Aubrey de Selincourt (1894-1962), classicist and translator, relating to discussion of [an enquiry by de Selincourt relating to employment at the London office of the Manchester Guardian], with an explanation of the work carried out there and the suggestion that de Selincourt arrange a meeting with James Bone, journalist. Also included is internal correspondence discussing the subject. There is a further request by de Selincourt to be considered for employment at the paper, with details of his previous experience, which is declined, owing to the need for a political writer as replacement for [Charles Edward] Montague, journalist and novelist.
