Ramanujan initially developed his own mathematical research in isolation: according to  Hans Eysenck : "He tried to interest the leading professional mathematicians in his work, but failed for the most part. What he had to show them was too novel, too unfamiliar, and additionally presented in unusual ways; they could not be bothered".Seeking mathematicians who could better understand his work, in 1913 he began a  postal  correspondence with the English mathematician  G.
