In Memoriam Andrei Zalizniak

Abstract

Andrei Anatolievich Zalizniak (April 29, 1935–December 24, 2017) was a linguist who was greatly admired and greatly loved. Those who knew him and his work found it remarkable that a single linguist could have accomplished so much in one lifetime, and yet was so enthusiastically generous of his time with students, schoolchildren, colleagues, and curious strangers.
