Alfred Marshall, Professor of Economics at Cambridge University
(1885-1908), produced a distinguished a distinguished crop of
students, many of them leaders in the economics profession in
subsequent generations. Pigou, Keynes and Denis Robertson are
undoubtedly the most famous of these Marshall 'pupils' but there
were many more, even if more minor forces in the development of
early twentieth century economics. This book intends to examine the
major work of ten of these 'minor' Marshallians - Sydney John
Chapman (1871-1951), John Harold Clapham (1873-1946), Charles Ryle
Fay (1884-1961), Alfred William Flux (1867-1942), Frederick
Lavington (1881-1927), Walter Thomas Layton (1884-1966), David
Huchinson MacGregor (1827-1953), Joseph Shield Nicholson
(1850-1927), Charles Percy Sanger (1871-1930) and Gerald Francis
Shove (1888-1947), to name them in alphabetical order. The broad
aim of this book is to evaluate the more important contributions of
these 'minor' Marshallians by selective examination of their major
economic work. That evaluation has at least two dimensions. First,
it focuses on the significance of the author's individual
contributions to the development of twentieth century economic
thought. Secondly, it attempts to assess the Marshallian
credentials of these contributions in order to indicate how
Marshallian in their economics these 'pupils' of Marshall's
economics teaching actually stayed.
