Abstract
In hospitals, sanatoriums, halfway houses, through declining health, Ramanujan kept up his work. He continued to produce groundbreaking theorems about partitions, identities, infinite series, integrals, and more, though now—in contrast to his work five years earlier—with a proof of every result. He had learned how to do mathematics in the modern style in which every assertion must be demonstrated using rigorous argumentation.
