Draft:Arnold Vincent Miller

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: Essentially, it is the very last, uncited, sentence here that needs to be cited and expanded: "His translations made an important contribution to the revival of interest in Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel and German Idealism in the Anglophone world in the second half of the twentieth century." Either one of the obituaries may aid in doing this. Hegvald (talk) 01:54, 10 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Comment: Why not list the works he translated in the article, not as a foot note? Move some of the comments in the notes into the article. Use the notes just for references. Rathfelder (talk) 11:02, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
  • Comment: Unclear as to notability. Please see WP:CIT about how to format references. Onel5969 TT me 16:44, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Life and Works

Miller was born on October 1, 1899, in London into a middle class family. He graduated from Hilldrop Road Secondary School in 1916. In 1917 he joined the British Army.[2][3] Miller's 1977 translation of The Phenomenology of Spirit, featured a foreword as well as a line-by-line commentary of the text by J. N.
