Passing of Prof. Saul Aaron Kripke

H-Judaic joins our colleagues across the academic world in mourning the passing of Saul Aaron Kripke (1940-2022), one of the foremost philosophers of our time.  The son of a rabbi and of a well-known author of Jewish children's books, Kripke displayed genius at an early age.  He spent the bulk of his career at Princeton and at the Graduate Center of City University, where he was University Professor.  The Saul Kripke Center (https://saulkripkecenter.org/) is dedicated to preserving, publishing and promoting his work.
