Not a letter but an internal BBC memo summarizing a conversation with BR about a series on America.

"Russell would be delighted to do the introductory talk to the series by himself or as a trilogy with Toynbee and Eliot. He was bubbling over with ideas and enthusiasm and asked if it would be possible for him to have more than 20 minutes. I think in view of all the wit and sharpness of his comments on the American impact that we should not be mean with time. He said that he is reconciled to the dominance of America in the political field but would fight her infiltration in the aesthetic field. He also mentioned, as I think C(T) did yesterday, the possibilities of readings. He mentioned Emerson's reactions to England which were exactly the same as would be an Englishman's reactions to America today. He thought that Gilson would be an admirable person to speak on the impact on the Continent, but suggested that if Gilson for some reason can't do it we should ask Madariaga whose book on Latin America and comments on North America he very much appreciated. He had no suggestions to make on an American being able to do a reply and did not know anything about Northrop.
