a transitory and public display of the private and enduring affection and
esteem in which we hold him. As teacher, scholar, colleague and friend
the mark he has made on us is both profound and permanent. In
recognition of his many talents and of his unquenchable ardor, I propose that we now assign a new title to this symposium. We need a
phrase that will include the man we honor, the speakers, the works of
art, and Professor Stechow's inveterate play on words and with words.
At one point this symposium was named "Youthful Works bv Great
Masters in Honor of Wolfgang Stechow." Let the symposium now
commence, rechristened with the Stechovian title "Great Works in
Honor of a Youthful Master, Wolfgang Stechow."
