BiographyOne of the most distinguised classicists of this century, his lifelong work being Athenian epigraphy, the reconstruction and interpretation of the legislative, financial, and other documents that the ancient Athenians recorded in inscriptions on marble and that survived today in thousands of broken fragments. He was the first humanist-historian to be appointed in 1935 to the newly established Institute for Advanced Study, School of Humanistic Studies, in Princeton, NJ, and at the University of Texas at Austin as Visiting Professor of Classics since 1972. He wrote 14 books, and more than 200 journal articles. The four volumes of The Athenian Tribute Lists was his greatest achievement, his monument.
Epigrapher, ancient historian; born in Durham, N.C. Along with Albert Einstein, he was one of the original members of Princeton's Institute for Advanced Study, where he was professor of Greek epigraphy, the study of ancient inscriptions (1935--69). He published widely on topography and epigraphy and his Athenian Tribute Lists (with M. F. McGregor and H. T. Wade-Gery, 1939--53) made possible detailed study of the growth of the Athenian empire in the 5th century B.C. His work on the Athenian calendar culminated in The Athenian Year (1961).
