I have little regard for Disney-engineered copyright laws that enable immortal corporations to batten indefinitely on the writings of dead people while restricting the right of live humans to read, learn, and enjoy, but I understand that a website such as this must observe the legalities.
Thus:
Anybody who e-mails me at lnpgilman [ a t ] wildblue [ d o t ] net will receive a free, directly shared, non-publicly-available copy of the abovementioned PDF document for personal use in accordance with Title 17 of the US code, which states that "the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies or phonorecords or by any other means specified by that section, for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright" (). I assert that my provision of the abovementioned excerpts to specific individuals who have expressed their desire to learn about the C.S.Lewis/Anscombe debate falls under the rubrics of teaching, scholarship, and research. If CSL Pte. Ltd. and the University of Minnesota want to sue me, then, that's my lookout.
