Subject: Richard Helgerson, 1940-2008
Dear Shakespeareans,
It saddens me greatly to announce that Professor Richard Helgerson of UC
Santa Barbara died on Saturday, after a long battle with cancer. In
addition to being an award-winning, ground-breaking, and inspiring
scholar, he was also a wonderful teacher and mentor. The field of
Renaissance literature has lost a great man.
A memorial service will be held on May 23rd at UC Santa Barbara. His
colleagues at UCSB have posted a full obituary as well as reflections on
his scholarly and teaching career at http://emc.english.ucsb.edu
Best,
Shannon Miller
Department of English
Temple University
