Chapter Chapter 8 in Dirichlet, 2018, pp 71-84 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract After the announcement of Dirichlet’s engagement “to the rich MendelssohnDirichlet, Rebecca, née Mendelssohn Bartholdy (1811–58),” the recently married mathematician Carl Gustav Jacob JacobiJacobi, Carl Gustav Jacob (1804–51) wrote to his parents one must wish that, given a happy domestic condition just as his own, Dirichlet could now settle down to concentrate more fully, as he had been letting his talents lie unused up to then. It was the kind of mixed message that was not so surprising emanating from JacobiJacobi, Carl Gustav Jacob (1804–51) as it might have been coming from another source, since it was not uncommon for JacobiJacobi, Carl Gustav Jacob (1804–51) to voice definite opinions or criticisms which he frequently modified later. The topics usually involved uncertain areas.
