From OP abstract
> such comments surfaced once more following the publication of Fuller's latest biography, in 2022 – most intriguingly, considering its author's assertion that Fuller was, indeed, a genius
Strange, then, that the two should disagree. You say that this biography agrees with OP article, but OP article disagrees with the biography. Did I misunderstand?
- pinewurst 2y agoGood question - if the biography was a scale, it seemed overall much more tilted towards dubiousness. I wasn't left with the impression that Fuller was a genius, other than at self-promotion. Edit: I just searched an epub version of the biography for "genius" and they all seem to reference other people talking about Fuller rather than editorial judgment. I'd have to read the thesis to see the author's fuller (ha!) interpretation of the bio.
