Breast cancer

Not sure why refs to his having had breast cancer (see http://www.authorscalendar.info/leskov.htm) were deleted. Quis separabit? 22:36, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A brief explanation could be found in the commentary to this edit of mine. Leskov suffered from angina pectoris which in Russia of the time was called 'breast toad' (ru:Грудная жаба), Petri Liukkonen, the author of this particular article (at www.authorscalendar.info) thought, apparently, that 'toad' meant 'cancer', and was mistaken. None of the Russian sources I've used mentioned any kind of cancer, so I thought it safe to dismiss it. Apart from this single blunder, Liukkonen's article is quite all right, though. -- Evermore2 (talk) 17:28, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
