medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture The local Kalamazoo paper tonight published the obituary of Prof. Otto Grundler, Professor of Religion emeritus at Western Michigan University. It was, in my view, Otto’s vision and patience, and his often self-effacing work, that transformed the Kalamazoo meeting of medievalists from a small regional gathering into the largest academic assemblage of medievalists in the world. Otto was also a gentle man of great kindness, open always to new ideas and new directions for medieval studies. I will miss him. John B.
