Thanks for this.

I recall that she collected stamps in her NY apartment, and now wonder what happened to the stamps. Something I've liked about collecting stamps is what they've taught me over the years about history. In answer to the final question above: her solitary life, stamp collecting, and reflections of her younger life in Russia and the US (as we reflect more when we get older), must have made her return to thoughts of romantic realism, classical liberals, Aristotle and Aquinas, much of which is at odds with her work in the 1940s and '50s. There were ways to convert those early approaches to a post-enlightenment way of thinking about the value of reeason in society, but there is no evidence that she bothered to consider this. It annoys me that she helped promote narcisism as a self-help aspect of anti-psychiatry movement ('60s-'70s) and the 'me, me, me' era of the 1970s, because both movements inspired baby boomers to abuse US politics and the economy, environment, social funding, news media, &c, at the expense of their children and grand children.
