[edit]

An article on the Russian mathematician Nadeschda Gernet was just recently moved from Draft to Main space. I had done a bit of smoothing-out just prior to that, but it could stand another round of scrutiny. In particular, I'm wondering if the degree listed as a "master's" was really a habilitation (it might have been translated incorrectly from a statement that used a false friend with the older "license to teach" meaning?).

XOR'easter: My Russian is pretty rusty but from this (see for example the Google translation) it looks as if she is remembered for being the second woman mathematician to obtain a degree from a Russian university, in this case a master's degree from Moscow University. Maybe she also gained fame for her doctorate in Göttingen but this needs to be substantiated. Someone needs to look into it all more carefully. There is a more extensive, nicely illustrated biography of Gernet here. To answer your query, the Russian certainly refers to a master's degree rather than to a teaching diploma.--Ipigott (talk) 08:39, 1 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
