- Title
JEAN NICOD: FAMILIAL BACKGROUND AND PACIFIST COMMITMENT.
- Authors
GANDON, SÉBASTIEN
- Abstract
This article has two purposes: first, to describe some archival discoveries about Nicod's family background, academic development and political life; and second, to publish and comment on a newly discovered article by Nicod about Russell. This article acclaims not only Russell's achievements in logic and philosophy--as one might expect from such a devoted protégé as Nicod--but also (albeit only in glimpses permitted by France's wartime censorship) his anti-war politics and writings. As the reader will realize, the two objectives are connected: what the archives reveal and what the article illustrates is a hitherto underappreciated level of political awareness and pacifist commitment in Nicod.
