Thank you for this bio of Pushkin!

It's a funny sort of thing, but clever in the telling. The whole book is worthwhile as it draws portraits of people of color, some of whom may have been forgotten.

Hi Landon, Thanks for your contribution to vol. 080 of Wittgenstein's dismissive review of Coffey's book, The Science of Logic! I was hoping we could find a source for your read which pointed directly to the relevant (March 1913) [vol. 34?] issue of the Cambridge Review, instead of the "Fair Use Repository." However, Hathi is missing the relevant volume, and I see that complete runs of the Cambridge Review are very scarce ("The Cambridge Review, by Arthur Sherbo, https://www.jstor.org/stable/40372087?read-now=1&seq=1). Given your sterling academic credentials, I am willing to go with your provided source.

As to the pronunciation of SNF... On principle, I am adverse to acronyms, but "Short Nonfiction Collection" is a lot to type repeatedly, and so, as BC, I finally gave up and adopted "SNF" for short hand. Frankly, I had never considered how SNF should be pronounced out loud (not having had the necessity to do so), but in my mind, I pronounce SNF as "S&F" (makes me think of a grocery chain), or "EssenEff" (which sounds like the name of the city plus "Eff," and EFF, according to my just completed search on the internet is an acronym for "Environmental Fuel Fee" relating to the surcharge on high sulfur fuel used in marine shipping.... You're free to pronounced SNF any way you want.

Howdy Sue,

Yes, it would be nice to have the missing text. I know of no open-access version of the original available on the web. It is reprinted in McGuinness' book and in The Cambridge Mind:

• 1913, “On Logic and How Not to Do It”, The Cambridge Review 34 (1912–13), 351; reprinted in Brian McGuinness, Wittgenstein: A Life, Berkeley & Los Angeles, University of California Press: 169–170.

• "On Logic, And How Not to Do It": Review of P. Coffey, The Science of Logic, in the Cambridge Review, 6 March 1913, as reprinted in E. Homberger et al., The Cambridge Mind, London: Jonathan Cape

On the other hand, it is in the public domain, so I should probably just post it in a nicer PDF format somewhere.

Yours Truly,
Landon
