Hello,
If it is possible, please, kindly, help me to translate second sentence:

どうもやはり少々大時代なくまである。
大時代なうえに理屈を好むとみた

Maybe first sentence could be translated as:

It was very obvious, he is somewhat antiquated bear.

Whereas second is little bit unclear because I am not sure about meanings of うえに and とみた :?

Thank you very much for your kind help.

:sorry:

There must be some typo's ... did you enter that all correctly?

Xのうえに == in addition to X

Xとみた == X is how I saw it
 
srintuarさん、

Thank you very much for your help. I have rechecked the sentence again.
But it was exactly same as in the book.

Also I have found some explanation on Net which stated that
~とみる is same as ~とする and means "to suppose". Although I could not find it in dictionary.

Learn Japanese Forum - to miru - regard as

Edit:

Maybe it is possible to translate as:

Besides (in addition to) being antiquate [bear], he also liked reasoning, I suppose.

Thank you very much.
 
The typo is here. :)
大時代なくまである

みる as "to consider/regard as"
10 (ふつう、前の内容を「と」でくくったものを受けて) 見当をつける。そのように考える。理解する。「遭難し たものとみられる」「一日の消費量を三千トンとみて」

It was in place I did not look. I was too much self confident.
