AND BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH This collection of essays in honor of
Roderick M. Chisholm is the work of his former students. The book
was conceived and the original con tributors invited by Richard
Taylor. We restricted the contributors to former students of
Chisholm as a special tribute to his acknowledged as a teacher of
philosophy. The profundity of his contributions to genius
epistemology and metaphysics are acknowledged throughout the phil
osophical world. Those who have been present at his lectures and
semi nars, who have been incited to philosophical cerebration by
the clarity and precision of his exposition, know that his impact
on contemporary philosophy far exceeds the influence of the written
word. It is, we think, appropriate that his students should reserve
for themselves the privilege of honoring Chisholm in this way as
his 60th birthday draws near. The tribute paid to Chisholm in
Taylor's essay conveys a personal impression. I shall,
consequently, refrain from personal reminiscence here, and instead,
mention some of the highlights of an illustrious life. Chisholm was
born on November 27, 1916 in North Attleboro, Massachu setts. He
married Eleanor F. Parker in 1943 and raised three children with
her. He received an A. B. from Brown in 1938, a Ph. D. from Harvard
in 1942, and served in the U. S. Army from 1942 to 1946."
