“…Actually, we are unable to construct any countable set of vectors in  ∞ that may span it. Although, Zorn's Lemma can be applied to show that every V has bases, see [2][3][4]. However, it does not explain the procedure of how to actually construct these bases if V is not finitely generated.…”

“…are barred, from the algebraic point of view, by the well-ordering theorem and its theory. (Zorn 1935, 667) As a way out he coined what is now known as "Zorn's Lemma" (ZL) (Zorn 1935;Campbell 1978), to have a variant of WO more palatable to algebraists. Since then, ZL has gradually replaced WO in proof practice, especially in algebra.…”

“…Mais tarde, uma carta abalou a sociedade Matemática das Américas, pois a mesma trazia a notícia de que o Lema da Zorn não possuía o nome de seu verdadeiro descobridor. Nesta busca pelas origens do lema de Zorn, foram encontrados documentos que comprovam, além de contribuição de diversos autores, o seu uso anterior as pesquisas de Zorn (Campbell, 1978).…”

“…Segundo (Campbell, 1978), o lema conhecido atualmente como" Lema de Zorn" já havia sido citado por outros autores, como: (Rosser, 1953, Cuesta, 1955, Fraenkel & Bar-Hillel, 1958, Rubin & Rubin, 1963, Beth, 1964, Semadeni, 1968, Jech 1973& Suppers, 1960. Muitos desses autores acabaram por estudar o tal Lema de Zorn, a história escondida por trás do nome que chama atenção, pois Max já conhecia relatos de outros estudos sobre o Lema.…”
