Vale Stuart, brilliant scholar and the kindest of people. As one of his doctoral students, I deeply appreciated his gentle advice and encouragement. Despite his relentlessly busy diary, he always had time at a moments notice for a chat, or to read a draft, or to have a chuckle over some archival oddity. For me, the legacy he leaves us is not just in his body of work - powerful, beautiful, incisive writing though it is. It is his wonderful sense of collegiality, of utter decency, his intellect and leadership, that will also never be forgotten. Thank you so much, Stuart. My deepest condolences to all of Stuarts family.
