Dear Miss Kallin
I think my talk on Occam might be called:
William of Occam as empiricist and democrat.
There are many aspects of his doctrine, some of them technical and difficult, but it is these two aspects that I should wish to emphasise, and that make him interesting to others than students of scholasticism. If you don’t like this title I can probably think of another.
Thank you for your letter about times.
Yours sincerely
Russell
