A chapter in Gösta Mittag-Leffler, 2010, pp 451-458 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract In early April 1900, Mittag-Leffler returned from his trip to Egypt. But he wasn’t feeling well, and he thought it was too soon to be coming home to be overwhelmed by the piles of unanswered letters that awaited him. He also needed to make a number of decisions regarding scientific and business matters. He would have much preferred to continue working on his mathematical papers. In his own opinion, the work that he’d started in Egypt near the pyramids and the Sphinx was the best he’d ever done – as he got older he’d acquired a “clearer and calmer view” and stored up a large amount of factual information.
