Abstract: | Professor Jekuthiel Ginsburg was a modest man with many friends. His modesty prevented him from publishing much under his own name, thus obscuring much of his work from the public, or even the researcher. In addition, one could safely conclude that his modesty was a major factor in his not becoming one of those public figures about whom many biographies or other works are written. Indeed, his main claim to fame is not his mathematical works, nor his scholarly works--nor even his contribution as an educator-but rather his contribution as an educator par excellence wherein he gained popularity not so much through the creation and· propagation of newer theories, but through his own deep and personal dedication to his students and to his work. (from Introduction). |
