Russell's address was inaudible to most of the Coliseum ; he was ill and died just over a week later.

Bertrand Russell invented the first type theory in response to his discovery that Gottlob Frege's version of naive set theory was afflicted with Russell's paradox.

After Morehead was bought out and retired Waddell merged his company with Russell's, changing the name to ' Waddell & Russell '.

It was suggested to him as an alternate form of Russell's paradox, which he had devised to show that set theory as it was used by Georg Cantor and Gottlob Frege contained contradictions.

Although it was a commercial flop, the film broke stylistic ground by being more focused and less visually ambitious – and thus easier to emulate on a tight budget – than either RHPS or Ken Russell's 1975 adaptation of The Who's music and storyline from the album Tommy, or even a lower-budget affair like The Ramones ' Rock ' n ' Roll High School ( 1979 ).

Gödel then studied number theory, but when he took part in a seminar run by Moritz Schlick which studied Bertrand Russell's book Introduction to Mathematical Philosophy, he became interested in mathematical logic.

These were avoided in PM by building an elaborate system of types: a set of elements is of a different type than is each of its elements ( a set is not an element ; one element is not the set ) and one cannot speak of the " set of all sets " and similar constructs, which would lead to paradoxes ( see Russell's paradox ).

It is thus now possible again to reason about sets in a non-axiomatic fashion without running afoul of Russell's paradox, namely by reasoning about the elements of V. Whether it is appropriate to think of sets in this way is a point of contention among the rival points of view on the philosophy of mathematics.

van Heijenoort in his commentary before Russell's 1902 Letter to Frege states that Zermelo " had discovered the paradox independently of Russell and communicated it to Hilbert, among others, prior to its publication by Russell ".

The analysis of logical concepts and the machinery of formalization that is essential to Principia Mathematica ( 3 vols., 1910 – 1913 ) ( by Bertrand Russell, 1872 – 1970, and Alfred North Whitehead, 1861 – 1947 ), to Russell's theory of descriptions, to Kurt Gödel's ( 1906 – 1978 ) incompleteness theorems, and to Alfred Tarski's ( 1901 – 1983 ) theory of truth, is ultimately due to Frege.
