Scarce ALS, one page both sides, 5 x 8, August 27, 1923. Letter to important philosopher and physicist Moritz Schlick. In part: “I certainly cannot refuse your request, as the object you have in view seems to me of the highest importance…But I am afraid what I can do will seem to you rather inadequate. In the first place, there are very few English or Americans who are capable of writing the sort of articles you want, and most of them would probably prefer to publish in English or American magazines. In the second place, I shall be unusually busy till April, as I am going to America on a lecture tour.” He goes on to refer Schlick to Frenchman Jean Nicod and a “group of Polish mathematical logicians at Warsaw”—most likely the influential Alfred Tarski, Rudolf Carnap, and Jan Lukasiewicz—who may be of help. In fine condition. Desirable scholarly content exchanged between influential philosophic minds. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
