The studies that make up this book were written and brought
together to honor the memory of Jan Pinborg. His unexpected death
in 1982 at the age of forty-five shocked and saddened students of
medieval philosophy everywhere and left them with a keen sense of
disappoint ment. In his fifteen-year career Jan Pinborg had done so
much for our field with his more than ninety books, editions,
articles, and reviews and had done it all so well that we
recognized him as a leader and counted on many more years of his
scholarship, his help, and his friendship. To be missed so sorely
by his international colleagues in an academic field is a mark of
Jan's achievement, but only of one aspect of it, for historians of
philosophy are not the only scholars who have reacted in this way
to Jan's death. In his decade and a half of intense productivity he
also acquired the same sort of special status among historians of
linguistics, whose volume of essays in his memory is being G. L.
Bursill-Hall almost simultane published under the editorship of
ously with this one. Sten Ebbesen, Jan's student, colleague, and
successor as Director of the Institute of Medieval Greek and Latin
Philology at the University of Copenhagen, has earned the gratitude
of all of us by memorializing Jan 1 in various biographical
sketches, one of which is accompanied by a 2 complete bibliography
of his publications."
