Biographical note
J.H. Waszink (1908-1990) studied Classics at Leiden University and completed his studies in 1933 with his dissertation Tertullian, De Anima mit Einleitung, Übersetzung und Kommentar. He started his professional career as a grammar school teacher but, in 1946, he was appointed Professor of Latin at Leiden University. He lectured and published on a wide range of authors, from Ennius to Boethius, but two names stand out in his scholarly work. After Tertullian, the edition of Calcidius’ translation (with a philosophical commentary) of the first half of Plato’s Timaeus became the second great enterprise of his life.
When the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences decided to produce a scholarly edition of Erasmus’ Opera Omnia, Waszink participated actively in the project, both as a member of the editorial board and as an editor of some of Erasmus’ works, including Lingua, which was published a year before Waszink’s death on 5 October 1990.
