Erika Rummel began as an Erasmus scholar and made herself the best and most productive one in the world today. Then she looked at the broader field of northern humanism, including Spain, and especially the relationship between humanism and the Reformation. She has brought fresh eyes, openness, even a sense of humor to a stagnant field. One has to read her books to appreciate fully that she tackles important topics, has keen curiosity, great analytical intelligence, and impeccable linguistic skills. Dr. Rummel has made the study of Renaissance humanism outside of Italy lively and fun again. A native of Austria, Dr. Rummel earned her Ph.D. from the University of Toronto (1976) and has been a member of the faculty at Wilfrid Laurier University, Ontario since 1992. She has held the title of Professor Emerita since 2002.

Anne Salmond is New Zealand’s most eminent scholar in social anthropology, ethnohistory, and Maori studies. Her research draws on structural linguistics, semantic anthropology, long-term ethnographic fieldwork at Maori ceremonial gatherings, and documentary and oral historical techniques, all used to establish key principles that have structured Maori and other Pacific peoples’ economics, social organization, rituals, and maintenance of group identity over the long course of encounters with European explorers and settlers in their cultural worlds. A public intellectual in the best sense of that term, Salmond is one of a small number of social scientists whose work can be truly said to have shaped thinking about the structure and nature of social and cultural relationships in New Zealand and the wider Pacific. Out of her studies of Maori and Pacific philosophies and ways of living engaged by European Enlightenment science and philosophies, and their Pacific legacies, she has awakened interest in new ways of resolving how cutting edge science can address environmental issues and issues of ecological restoration. Her latest work is Tears of Rangi: Exeriments Across Worlds (2017).

William Sandiford (ca. 1728–late May 1775) was a physician, and a member of the American Philosophical Society, elected in 1768. Born in Barbados, he first studied at Edinburgh University before receiving his M.D. degree at Leyden in 1751. He returned to Barbados and opened a medical practice where he saw first hand the ravaging effects of yellow fever, observations that were soon after published by friends who believed his insights valuable. In 1773, Sandiford and his wife traveled to Philadelphia where they hoped their social connections and change in environment might bolster the physician's failing health. Their contacts there included APS member Israel Pemberton’s son Charles, whom Sandiford had cared for during the young man’s time in Barbados, as well as APS member James Pemberton, a business associate of Sandiford’s brother. The Sandifords’ relocation proved temporary and they returned to Barbados even as a lackluster sentiment for the island marked his homecoming. Sandiford was even less inclined towards the looming fight for American Independence; it was a fight he did not live to see. (PI)
