Edmund Morgan, Sterling Professor Emeritus at Yale University, wrote dozens of books on Puritan and early colonial history. Acclaimed for both their scholarly focus and their appeal to a general audience, his books include Inventing the People: The Rise of Popular Sovereignty in England and America (1988), which won Columbia University's Bancroft Prize in American History in 1989, and American Slavery, American Freedom (1975), which won the Society of American Historians' Francis Parkman Prize, the Southern Historical Association's Charles S. Sydnor Prize and the American Historical Association's Albert J. Beveridge Award. Two of his early books, Birth of the Republic (1956) and The Puritan Dilemma (1958) were for decades required reading in many school history courses. Dr. Morgan's other works include biographies of Ezra Stiles and Roger Williams as well as a book on George Washington. He is a truly significant interpreter of the colonial period of American history whose skills of analysis and presentation encompass political, intellectual and social history. Edmund Morgan died July 8, 2013, at the age of 97 in New Haven, Connecticut. | |

I studied Classics and Comparative Literature in Europe and the United States, and have taught at the Universities of Yale, Princeton, Michigan, Siena, Innsbruck, and Heidelberg. Since 1996 I have been a recurrent Visiting Professor on the Committee on Social Thought at the University of Chicago and since 2001 simultaneously Professor of Greek Philology at the Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa; since 2010 I have been an External Scientific Member of the Max Planck Institute for the History of Science in Berlin. I have published books on Classics (The Measures of Praise: Structure and Function in Pindar's Second Pythian and Seventh Nemean Odes = Hypomnemata 83, Göttingen, Vandenhoeck und Ruprecht, 1985; Theophrastus, Metaphysics, ed. with A. Laks, Paris, Les Belles Lettres, 1993; Studies on the Derveni Papyrus, ed. with A. Laks, Oxford, Oxford University Press, 1997; the new Loeb edition of Hesiod, in two volumes, 2006-7), on the history and methodology of Classical studies (F.A. Wolf: Prolegomena to Homer, ed. with A.T. Grafton and J.E.G. Zetzel, Princeton, Princeton University Press, 1985; Aporemata 1-6, Göttingen, Vandenhoeck und Ruprecht, 1997ff.; an English translation of Sebastiano Timpanaro’s study of the genesis of the method of Lachmann, 2005), on comparative literature, cultural studies, and the history of religion (Doubting Thomas, Cambridge MA, Harvard University Press, 2005; The Classical Tradition, co-edited with A.T. Grafton and S. Settis, Cambridge, Harvard University Press, 2010), on literary theory (The Poetics of Murder: Detective Fiction and Literary Theory, ed. with W.W. Stowe, New York, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1983) and on the history of art (Raffael, Die Schule von Athen. Über das Lesen der Bilder, Frankfurt a.M., Fischer Verlag, 1999; Italian translation 2001), and I have published numerous articles, reviews, and translations in these fields and also on modern philosophy and literature. I was the editor in charge of ancient Greek literature for Der Neue Pauly and directed and co-edited a three-volume selection of the works of Arnaldo Momigliano in German and a new revised edition of the leading American translation of all the surviving Greek tragedies. I am on the editorial board of a number of scholarly journals in Classical studies, philosophy, and other fields. Currently I am finishing a new co-edited Loeb edition of the Presocratic philosophers, a bilingual edition of the ancient and medieval scholia and commentary to Hesiod’s Theogony, and co-edited volumes on the suicide of Ajax in Sophocles’ tragedy and on philological methods in a variety of canonical written traditions.
During my career on both sides of the Atlantic I have tried to combine work in the traditional disciplines of Classical (especially Greek) philology at the highest level of excellence I could attain with research on related disciplines to which Classics could make a significant contribution and from which a significant contribution could be made to scholarship in Classics. This intellectual movement between various foci has enriched and stimulated my work both inside my discipline and outside. To this end I completed two doctorates, one in traditional Classical philology (Greek) in Tübingen, and another in more theoretically and post-classically oriented Comparative Literature at Yale; and my teaching and research have been directed towards both foci. Within the field of ancient Greek I have worked primarily on Greek poetry and philosophy of the Archaic and Classical periods (Hesiod, lyric, tragedy; Presocratics, Plato). My non-Classical activities were directed in the first part of my career primarily to reception studies, Comparative Literature, the history and methodology of Classical scholarship, art history, Biblical studies, and ancient philosophy, and these have continued to be central to my research agenda. In recent years my long-standing interest in the history and methodology of Classical scholarship has developed into an intense commitment to a history of science approach to the comparative study of philological procedures as they have been practiced in various canonical textual traditions, not only Greco-Roman, but also such other ones as Mesopotamian, Jewish, Arabic, Sanskrit, and Chinese. My interest in inter-disciplinarity as providing enrichment and context for my commitment to the discipline of Classical studies is paralleled by a broad network of international collaborations with scholars and institutions throughout Europe and North America (and, more recently, with China as well). | |

Salikoko S. Mufwene is the Edward Carson Waller Distinguished Service Professor of Linguistics and the College at the University of Chicago, where he also serves on the Committee of Evolutionary Biology, the Committee on the Conceptual and Historical Studies of Science, and the Committee on African Studies. He was conferred the honorary title of Extraordinary Professor of Linguistics at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa for 2018-2021. Mufwene refers to his research as evolutionary linguistics, in which he approaches language evolution from an ecological perspective, finding inspiration in macroecology and population genetics. The research focuses on the phylogenetic emergence of languages, language speciation, and language endangerment and loss (LEL). The interest in speciation started with the emergence of creoles, which he extended to that of other forms of the indigenization of European languages in the colonies. He conceives of languages as communication technologies developed through the exaptation of the hominin anatomy by the brain in response to especially changing population structures. The complexity of languages as technologies can be correlated with that of the mind that produces them and has arisen incrementally over the past half million years or so. The power of the mind itself is the outcome of how the brain itself has evolved concurrently with ongoing changes in the hominin anatomy. Human mental capacity accounts generally for the complexity of the cultures that have emerged in different populations, by contrast with what we know of the cultures of other animals.
Mufwene has published over 300 journal articles, book chapters, and book reviews. His many authored and (co-)edited books include: Africanisms in Afro-American language varieties – editor (the University of Georgia Press, 1993); African-American English: Structure, history and use, co- edited with John Rickford, Guy Bailey, & John Baugh (Routledge, included among the linguistics classics of the Publisher); The Ecology of Language Evolution (CUP, 2001—translated into Mandarin and included among the classics of the Commercial Press in linguistics, in China); Créoles, écologie sociale, évolution linguistique: cours donnés au Collège de France durant l’automne 2003 (L’Harmattan, 2005); Polymorphous linguistics: Jim McCawley’s legacy – co-edited with Elaine J. Francis and Rebecca S. Wheeler (MIT Press, 2005); Language Evolution: Contact, competition and change (Continuum Press, 2008); Globalization and language vitality: Perspectives from Africa, co-edited with Cécile B. Vigouroux (Continuum Press, 2008); Iberian Imperialism and Language Evolution in Latin America – editor (the University of Chicago Press, 2014); Colonisation, globalisation, vitalité du français – co-edited with Cécile B. Vigouroux (Odile Jacob, 2014); Complexity in language: Developmental and evolutionary perspectives – co-edited with Christophe Coupé & François Pellegrino (CUP, 2017); Bridging Linguistics and Economics – co-edited with Cécile B. Vigouroux (CUP, 2020); and The Cambridge Handbook of Language Contact, 2 volumes – co-edited with Anna María Escobar (June 2022). Mufwene is the founding editor of the book series Cambridge Approaches to Language Contact (2001-) and has been invited to edit the book series Cambridge Elements in Language Contact (still in preparation).
Mufwene is a Native of the now Democratic Republic of Congo (formerly the Republic of Zaïre), where he completed his BA in English Philology at the Université Nationale du Zaïre at Lubumbashi, with Highest Honors, in 1973. He enrolled at the University of Chicago in 1974 for his graduate training and earned his PhD, with distinction, in 1979. His dissertation was in Generative Semantics, perhaps one of the last dissertations in this research paradigm. He went to work at the University of the West Indies, at Mona, Jamaica (Jan 1980 – July 1981); and there he retooled himself to do creole linguistics, focusing first on structures of these new vernaculars and then shifting gradually to the subject matter of their emergence. In September 1981, he moved to the University of Georgia, where, reading literature in both chaos theory and evolutionary biology, he started developing his ecological approach to the emergence of creoles and compared the case of English creoles with that of Indigenized Englishes in former British exploitation colonies of Africa and Asia. Since Dec. 1991, he has been teaching at the University of Chicago and chaired its Department of Linguistics from 1995 to 2001.
The growing linguistics interest in LEL prompted him to undertake research on globalization and language. This is an expansion of his ecological approach to language evolution. Focusing on language birth and death, he has questioned the claim that worldwide globalization has been the driver of these evolutionary processes. According to him, worldwide globalization provides remote causes; the real actuators of language speciation and the concurrent LEL are local, produced by the local population structures, including the relevant socioeconomic systems. The approach can explain why the linguistic effects of colonization of the world by Europeans have varied not only between the settlement and exploitation colonies but also from one polity to another, including territories colonized in the same style. In some places, one must also factor in layers of colonization of differing styles such as in South Africa. Mufwene is now revising a book typescript on the subject matter. He is an advocate of decolonial linguistics.
Mufwene was a visiting professor at the Université Jean-Moulin, Lyon, France (Fall 1989); the University of the West Indies at Mona (summer 2001); the National University of Singapore (fall 2001); Harvard University (spring 2002); le Collège de France (fall 2003); Université de Paris, Sorbonne (fall 2004); Institut Universitaire de France (April & May 2006); University of São Paulo (June 2009); and Nanyang Technological University (spring 2018); among a few other places. He was a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study in Lyon, France (Oct. 2011 - June 2011), taught 4 times at the Summer Institute of Linguistic Society of America (1999, 2005, 2015, 2017); and was inducted Fellow of the Linguistic Society of America in 2018. In 2021 colleagues and friends from different disciplines celebrated his interdisciplinary scholarship with a Festschrift titled Variation rolls the dice: A worldwide collage in honour of Salikoko S. Mufwene, ed. by Enoch Oladé Aboh and Cécile B. Vigouroux (John Benjamins). | |
