Joad's rise and fall are admirably described in Jason Tomes' entry on him in the Oxford DNB. The present letter was written after the disgrace which followed his 1948 conviction for fare-dodging. Not only was Joad dropped from the programme which had made him a nationwide celebrity, 'The Brains Trust', as a result, but his well-founded hopes of a peerage were dashed. It is interesting to note from the present letter that Joad continued to work for the BBC after his disgrace. The letter is 2pp, landscape 12mo. In fair condition, aged and creased, with two punch-holes at head. The letter has one autograph emendation (the typed 'thought' replaced by 'been thinking'). It begins: 'Dear Mr. Burnett, | I enclose herewith the second pair of talks. With regard to Talk IV, I think after yesterday's experience that this may be a bit too long, and I have thought of methods of shortening it.' He explains, with reference to the text, what he proposes to do, ending 'I suggest, then, that these paragraphs could be cut out, which will give me a bit more time to read slowly.' From the papers of BBC producer Hugh Burnett, best-remembered for creating the television programme 'Face To Face', in which prominent men were interviewed by John Freeman.

1p., 4to. In good condition, lightly aged. Signed 'Cyril Joad'. Written in the same month as Britain and France had declared war, the letter begins: 'I don't know whether you are still running the Sunday Dispatch, but if you are, how about an article on the philosophy which underlies the Nazi rule in Germany? Till war broke out one had to soft-pedal one's views of these monstrous ideas, but now that it has come, one can take off the muzzle and say what one likes.' He outlines the 'main heads' of his article: 'theory of the State, theory of the relation of the individual to the State, theory of the whole duty of man, theory of the whole duty of woman, views as to the education of children, views as to the divinity of Hitler, views as to the secret [last word in autograph] mission of Germans, views as to the non-human character of all non-Aryans'. He has compiled a 'list of charming quotations from Nazi writers and speakers on these subjects', and the whole would make a 'keen article, partly amused (e.g. "Hitler is lonely; so is God. Hitler is like God."), partly horrified (e.g. "Justice and Hitler's will are one and the same thing."), and wholly denunciatory.' In an autograph postscript he writes: 'If you are not running the Dispatch, how are you and what are you doing and are you ever at the Savage [Club]?'.
