7 A complete list of Bursill-Hall's publications down to Spring 1980, together with reviews of his major works, appeared in Studies in Medieval Linguistic Thought ed. by Hans-J. Nie-derehe, R. H. Robins, and myself – a 300-page Festschrift in his honour on the occasion of his sixtieth birthday (Amsterdam: John Benjamins, 1980), pp. 7-11.

8 Another entry on “Roger Bacon (b. c.l214-d. 1292/94)”, submitted to the subject editor in charge of biographical entries for this Encyclopedia in September 1991, was not included for reasons unbeknownst to me.
