OCR Page 1 of 63Keynes's Lecture Notes By Robert B. Bryce
(Transcribed by Thomas K. Rymes)
PRELIMINARY DRAFT
From mid-1932 to mid-1935, Robert B. Bryce, in later life Clerk
of the Privy Council and Secretary to the Cabinet and Deputy Minister of
Finance in the Government of Canada was a member of St. Johns College
at the University of Cambridge. He attended the lectures of John Maynard
Keynes in the Michaelmas Terms 1932, 1933 and 1934 1 The notes which
Mr. Bryce took of Keynes's lectures have been frequently referred to in
the literature. The original notes were kindly donated by him to
Carleton University and are kept in the Special Collection of the MacOdrum
2
Library
I undertook a transcription of these earlier notes for the use of
interested scholars. In this endeavour, I was warmly assisted by
Mr. Bryce who, in the midst of the busy activity of a distinguished
retired civil servant, came out to Carleton almost every Friday in the
Fall Term of 1979 and read his notes to, and discussed them, Keynes and
his life at Cambridge with me.
In this preliminary draft, I have refrained from editing the
notes by reference to the now substantial literature found, for instance,
1. Bryce's account of his student's view of Keynes is found in eds.
D. Patinkin and J. Clark Leith, Keynes, Cambridge and the General Theory
(Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1978).
2. An earlier typewritten version of Bryce's notes is also on deposit
in the Marshall Library at Cambridge. Cf. D. Patinkin, Anticipations of
the General Theory? And Other Essays on Keynes (Chicago: University
of Chicago Press, 1982), 119.
