Keynes, Keynes, and more...

I am during these days reading Keynes. I will read The General Theory, and play around with his ideas. We will see what I obtain.John Myrand Keynes was born the 5 June 1883 in Cambridge. (What a nice place to be born and to be an economist!) He died 21 April 1946.Here is a nice links with his biography http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Keynes.htmlBy the way, he lived both world wars, he was alife at the same time than Ludwig Wittgenstein (1890-1951), may be he was aware of historical results or debates as Hilbert’s problems, Russell and Withehead Principia Mathematica or Einstein (1879 - 1955) Relativity Theory.I assume that the amount of information difussed among the universities was neither high nor extremly specialized at those times.So, is not obvious that he was influencied by all (and a lot of more) of these results. However, those were good times in the science literature!
