Chapter Chapter 12 in Dirichlet, 2018, pp 157-179 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The initial period after the Dirichlets’ return from Italy was pleasant and hopeful. On his way back to Berlin, Dirichlet had stopped to visit Felix Mendelssohn BartholdyMendelssohn Bartholdy, Felix (1809–47) and other family members and friends in Frankfurt. FelixMendelssohn Bartholdy, Felix (1809–47) had written to his sistersDirichlet, Rebecca, née Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1811–58) Hensel, Fanny, née Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1805–47) , who were still in Italy, that Dirichlet was lively and well, sported an enormous beard, and could hardly be recognized, not only because of the beard, but because he appeared younger, heavier, and generally healthier than he had been when they last saw him.
