Dear List Members:

At Antreas Hatzipolakis' request, Julio re-provided some interesting
remarks on the co-operation of Weil and Levi-Strauss.

An illuminating contextual analysis of this collaboration, and more
generally of structuralism outside and inside mathematics may be found
in:

David Aubin, "The Withering Immortality of Nicolas Bourbaki: A Cultural
Connector at the Confluence of Mathematics, Structuralism and the Oulipo
in France", _Science in Context_ Vo. 10, pp. 297-342 (1997).

Best wishes
