Dr. G. Philip Akrigg
RSC Fellow,
Affiliation: The University of British Columbia
Deceased Date: 2001-02-08
An indefatigable scholar, as his work attests. His book "Jacobean Pageant or the Court of King James I" is a beautifully integrated structure in which the results of research are combined into a kind of monument. His "Shakespeare and the Earl of Southampton" is a brilliant analysis of a relation that had long been obscure. He is now launched upon the sea of James I's papers, which extends to about a quarter of a million words. His nearly unrivalled knowledge of Jacobean sources makes him an ideal
man for the task.
Dr. Charles Alcock
RSC Fellow,
Affiliation: University of Toronto
Deceased Date: 2001-12-29
Professor Alcock is a distinguished scientist. His work in the thermodynamics of metallic compounds and solutions, as well as in the kinetics of high-temperature processes has earned him an international reputation. He has published about 110 papers, mostly in these two areas, and is the author of a book and co-author of another. Recognition of his high profile by his peers is also attested by the number of important activities (international commissions, committees and research projects) which he has directed in the immediate past. His well-known interests in the arts, combined with a very pleasant personality, make him a well rounded fellow.
Dr. Michael Ames
RSC Fellow, Academy of Social Sciences
Affiliation: The University of British Columbia
Deceased Date: 2006-02-20
Dr. Michael Ames is a foremost example of the creative scholar who seriously and methodically exerts an influence on the professional standards of conduct within his discipline. His research has enlightened anthropology through the analysis of Buddhism in practice, and of the social and cultural influences which shape the destiny of peoples embarking upon industrial innovation and migration to new lands. His commitment and selflessness have enabled him to exercise a respected influence as the profession has developed in Canada, to forge links of cooperation between India and Canada, and for 23 years to guide the destinies of a university Museum designed to serve scholars and public through imaginative innovation.
