Bertrand Russell, British philosopher, logician, mathematician, public intellectual and Nobel Prize In Literatue recipient who influenced mathematics, logic, set theory, and various areas of analytic philosophy, free love advocate (May 18, 1872 - February 2, 1970) was born at Ravenscroft, a country house in Trellech, Monmouthshire, South-East Wales into an influential and liberal family of the British aristocracy. Bertrand Arthur William Russell, 3rd Earl Russell's parents were Viscount and Viscountess Amberley. Both were early advocates of birth control at a time when this was considered scandalous. Lord Amberley consented to his wife's relationship with their children's tutor, the biologist Douglas Spalding. Lord Amberley, a deist, asked the philosopher John Stuart Mill to act as Russell's secular godfather. Mill died the year after Russell's birth, but his writings later influenced Russell's life. Bertrand Russell was one of the early 20th century's prominent logicians and a founder of analytic philosophy, along with his predecessor Gottlob Frege, his friend and colleague G. E. Moore, and his student and protege Ludwig Wittgenstein. Russell with Moore led the British "revolt against idealism". Together with his former teacher Alfred North Whitehead, Russell wrote Principia Mathematica, a milestone in the development of classical logic and a major attempt to reduce the whole of mathematics to logic (Logicism). Russell's article "On Denoting" has been considered a "paradigm of philosophy". Russell was educated at Trinity College at the University of Cambridge, where he graduated in 1893. He was a pacifist who championed anti-imperialism and chaired the England-based India League. He went to prison for his pacifism during the First World War, and he initially supported appeasing Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany, before changing his view in 1943, describing war as a necessary "lesser of two evils". In the wake of the Second World War, he welcomed American global hegemony in preference to either Soviet hegemony or no (or ineffective) world leadership, even if it were to come at the cost of using their nuclear weapons. He would later criticise Stalinist totalitarianism, condemn the United States' involvement in the Vietnam War, and become an outspoken proponent of nuclear disarmament. In 1950 Russell was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature "in recognition of his varied and significant writings in which he champions humanitarian ideals and freedom of thought". He was also the recipient of the De Morgan Medal (1932), Sylvester Medal (1934), Kalinga Prize (1957), and Jerusalem Prize (1963). Russell died of influenza just after 8 pm at his home in Penrhyndeudraeth ("PEN-DREN-DAY-dryth"), Merionethshire, Wales aged 97. His body was cremated on February 5, 1970 in Colwyn Bay, a town Conwy County Borough on the north coast of Wales overlooking the Irish Sea, with five people present. In accordance with his will, there was no religious ceremony but one minute's silence; his ashes were later scattered over the Welsh mountains.] Although he was born in Monmouthshire, and died in Penrhyndeudraeth, both in Wales, Russell identified as English. On October 23, 1970, his will was published showing he had left an estate valued at 69,423 PS (equivalent to 1.4M PS in 2023). In 1980, a memorial to Russell was commissioned by a committee including the philosopher A. J. Ayer. It consists of a bust of Russell in Red Lion Square in London sculpted by Marcelle Quinton.
