medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Amen, George. And in addition to that, I should add that on a personal level,
he was an immensely thoughtful and kind man. I feel privileged to have known
him and I am sad at his passing.

Few medievalists have had such an impact on so many researchers as
Claudio Leonardi. The publication activity of the centre he founded,
the International Society for the Study of the Latin Middle Ages, is
immense; as one very senior colleague once said to me, 'we should
erect a statue to him'.
Above all, in my opinion, Prof. Leonardi's bibliographical journal
*Medioevo Latino* deserves to be in each and every library where
scholarship on the Middle Ages is practiced and taught. It has been
to me an utter mystery as to why so few libraries in North America
and the United Kingdom subscribe to it. Don't get me wrong: I am very
fond of the *International Medieval Bibliography* (for which I worked
professionally), but really, there is no comparison between the two.
