Abstract

Bastian, an eminent, if controversial, naturalist, pioneer neurologist, and for 30 years, professor at University College, London, ended with a certain income of only Ł75 in his last year. Sir James Crichton-Browne initiated the grant of a Civil List pension. Prime Minister H Asquith, after consulting the London Royal Society, advised King George V to disburse a pension of Ł150.

摘要

巴斯蒂安是一位杰出的博物学家，尽管颇具争议，同时也是神经学先驱，曾在伦敦大学学院担任30年教授，但其晚年仅有75英镑的固定收入。詹姆斯·克莱顿-布朗爵士发起了为他授予王室津贴养老金的申请。首相H·阿斯奎斯在咨询伦敦皇家学会后，建议乔治五世国王发放一笔150英镑的养老金。
