Abstract

Had he not died suddenly on 26 August 1984, in his eightieth year, Stanley Newman would have been President of the Society in 1986, and his Presidential Address might well appear in this issue. In its stead, we memorialize the character of his achievements as one of the most gifted of Sapir's successors, whose career in a way typifies the experience of a whole group of that academic generation.
