“Our Friend Ethel Lilian Boole”…

Posted by nickpelling on Dec 12th, 2008

I know, I did indeed say that I wasn’t going to post anything for a while… but then this wonderful translation (from the Russian) of Evgeniya Taratuta’s (1957) “Our Friend Ethel Lilian Boole” popped up, made by Séamus Ó Coigligh (who retired as Curator of Cork Public Museum as long ago as 1981). Uhhh… whatever keep-going-forever potion he’s using, I think I’d like the recipe…

Taratuta’s article (which I first read about in Andrew Cook’s “Ace of Spies: The True Story of Sidney Reilly”) beams a whole medley of archival lights onto ELV’s and WMV’s early lives, particularly on the adumbral period before 1900. There is also a mention of a short 16mm film clip that ELV sent to Taratuta – wouldn’t that be a wonderful thing to put on YouTube? Just a thought… icon smile Our Friend Ethel Lilian Boole...
