E' MANCATO PETER SPUFFORD

[teofrasto]

E' mancato un grande studioso di Storia economica medievale.

Peter Spufford se n'è andato. Aveva 83 anni.

Quello che segue è preso dalla sua pagina personale del Queens'College di Cambridge ma non rende certo l'idea della sua importanza e di quanto gli studiosi di numismatica medievale, e non solo loro, e gli devono. 

Ci mancherà senz'altro.

Ho letto diversi suoi lavori, uno studioso insigne.

Una grande perdita per la numismatica.

Vero @Gallienus, una perdita enorme.

Una grande perdita per la numismatica, mi unisco al cordoglio di parenti, amici e tanti estimatori.

Ho fatto appena in tempo a conoscerlo a Taormina e a scambiare quattro chiacchiere! Un grande con sagace umorismo!

Mi dispiace molto.

Una grande perdita per la numismatica.

Condoglianze alla famiglia.
