Ted Bogacz

United States Naval Academy history professor Ted Bogacz died suddenly due to complications from surgery on September 18, 1992, at the age of forty-nine, in Annapolis, Maryland.

A native of Chicago, Mr. Bogacz received his bachelor of arts degree from the University of Illinois and his doctorate in modern British history from the University of California at Berkeley. He also studied at the Universities of Freiburg and Gottingen.

Before coming to the Naval Academy, Mr. Bogacz taught in German secondary schools in Northeim and Gottingen, at the University of California at Berkeley, and in the U.S. Navy's Chapman College program. From 1986 to 1987, he was an exchange professor at the British Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst, England.

An internationally recognized expert on the impact of "shell shock" and war-related neuroses, Mr. Bogacz pioneered the study of how war and psychiatry influenced language in the early twentieth century. At the time of his death, Mr. Bogacz was nearing completion of a comprehensive analysis of British culture during World War I.

Mr. Bogacz was actively involved in the History Club and the history department honors program. Among his students were a number of Rhodes scholars. During his years at the academy, he dedicated himself to advancing the appreciation of classical music among the midshipmen. Responding to these efforts, students memorialized Mr. Bogacz by establishing the "Ted Bogacz Classical Music Collection" in the Nimitz Library. While at Annapolis, Mr. Bogacz frequently tutored at St. John's College.

Mr. Bogacz is survived by his wife, Sally, and his mother, Henrietta. A memorial service in his honor was held at the U.S. Naval Academy chapel on September 24, 1992.

Harry Lewis Coles

Harry Lewis Coles, professor emeritus of history at the Ohio State University, died of complications following heart surgery on October 11, 1993. He was seventy-five years old. He is survived by his wife, Pat, and two sons, Christopher and Karl.

Born and raised in central Tennessee, Coles earned his academic degrees at Vanderbilt University in history (A.B., magna cum laude, 1939, and Ph.D., 1949). He specialized in early national American history, especially land policy and western expansion. From his wartime service as a civilian historian for the Army Air Forces and his work as an archivist and historian for the U.S. Army, Coles developed an interest in American military history. He wrote portions of the seven-volume work The U.S. Army Air Forces in World War II and edited Total War and Cold War (1962), a book of essays on military history. He also served as coauthor and coeditor of Soldiers Become Governors (1964), a volume in the Army's official history of World War II.

James B. Conacher

James B. Conacher, professor emeritus of history at the University of Toronto, died on October 3, 1993. James Conacher was born in 1916, at Kingston, Ontario, where his father was a professor of French at Queen's University. He received his B.A. and M.A. degrees from Queen's and his Ph.D. from Harvard University in 1944. His supervisor at Harvard was Professor David Owen. After serving in the Canadian Army for five years, Conacher joined the history department at the University of Toronto in 1946, remaining in Toronto until his retirement in 1983. He was chair of the history department from 1972 to 1977. He also held visiting appointments at the University of Notre Dame in 1965–66, the University of Sydney in 1983, and Queen's University in 1984–85. Queen's awarded him the LL.D. in 1983.

Professor Conacher's scholarly work was primarily in nineteenth-century British political history. He wrote on the followers of Sir Robert Peel, and his book The Aberdeen Coalition, 1852–1855 (1968) remains the standard work on the Aberdeen ministry. Active in the Anglo-American Historical Conference and the Midwest Conference on British Studies, he was president of the latter in 1968–69. After his retirement, he served as coeditor of several volumes of The Benjamin Disraeli Letters published at Queen's University. Conacher was also active in Canadian history, editing the Canadian Historical Review in the 1950s and volumes published by the Champlain Society between 1950 and 1962. He was president of the Canadian Historical Association in 1974–75.

Following The Aberdeen Coalition, Conacher published several more extended treatments of British history, including The Emergence of Parliamentary Democracy (1970), The Peelites and the Party System (1972), and From Waterloo to the Common Market, volume five of the Borzoi History of England (1975).

Sydney V. James

Sydney V. James, professor of history at the University of Iowa, died of lymphoma on May 16, 1993, at his home, in Iowa City. He was sixty-four years old.

Sydney James grew up in Chicago and graduated from Harvard College in 1950; he stayed there for his graduate work, and earned the Ph.D. in 1958. He taught at Kent State University, Brown University, and the University of Oregon before coming to Iowa in 1965. He chaired the history department between 1970 and 1974 and during the last year of his life.

James devoted much of his work to the history of colonial Rhode Island. His work in colonial history was driven by a need to understand the conditions that might sustain religious liberty and secular toleration, values he himself cherished. His writing was marked by skepticism, a delight in precise archival research, and an insistence on not straying from primary sources. A People Among Peoples: Quaker Benevolence in Eighteenth-Century America (1963) explored the tension between Quakers' asceticism and their attraction to public authority. Colonial Rhode Island: A History (1976) is a probing analysis of the colony's history, resting on formidable archival research. It is gracefully written and marked by what one reviewer called James's "wise skepticism." James continued his scrutiny of Rhode Island's colonial records, drafting a massive institutional history of the colony. The manuscript, which is not yet published, is available to researchers at the Rhode Island Historical Society. By the time of his death, he had nearly completed the first scholarly biography of Dr. John Clarke, one of the founders of the Baptist denomination in America, and was engaged in a study of Columbus's changing geographical conceptions during 1492–93.

James's honors included the Walter Muir Whitehill prize in colonial history (1984) and fellowships from the National Endowment for the Humanities, the American Council of Learned Societies, and the Charles Warren Center for Studies in American History.

For James, committee work was an art form. He took great pride in his service on the American Historical Association's Committee on Women Historians (1976–79) and in his role as principal author of the second edition of A Survival Manual for Women (and Other) Historians (1980). He served on the council of the Institute of Early American History and Culture and on the board of editors of the William and Mary Quarterly. At the University of Iowa, he served on many committees, including several charged with the selection or evaluation of university presidents and vice-presidents; he was a member of twenty-five departmental search committees. Sydney James's skill in recognizing talent will have an impact on the University of Iowa for the next generation.

Sydney V. James is survived by his wife, Jean, his son and daughter, six grandchildren, his sister, Elizabeth J. Hagey, and his brother, Edward T. James.

Christopher Lasch, Historian and Social Critic

Christopher Lasch, American historian, social critic, and public intellectual, died Monday, February 14, 1994, at the age of sixty-one at his home, in Pittsford, New York. Lasch was a central figure in American intellectual life for over thirty years, and one of the few historians in an age of academic specialization and hermetic professionalization whose ideas and influence extended well beyond the walls of the university. A thinker of unflinching integrity, he was unsparing in his criticism of ideological cant and special pleading, whatever its political complexion. "Self-trust," Emerson said, was the virtue of the American scholar in which all others were comprehended: "Fear is a thing, which a scholar by his very function puts behind him. . . . The world is his who can see through its pretension." Few American scholars saw through more of the pretensions of the last three decades than Lasch, and few were as fearless.

Lasch was born on June 1, 1932, in Omaha, Nebraska. His father, Robert Lasch was a journalist and editorial writer for major newspapers in Omaha, Chicago, and St. Louis, and his mother, Zora, was a social worker and philosopher. Born Robert Christopher Lasch, he dropped his first name when one of his first unsolicited submissions to a major American magazine was rejected by editors who thought it was a subpar piece of work by his father. His parents imbued Lasch with the spirit of Midwestern progressivism and liberalism, and though he would in time become a relentless critic of this tradition, he never lost touch with its virtues.

After graduating from Harvard in 1954, Lasch briefly considered a career as a writer before entering graduate school at Columbia, where he received an M.A. in 1955 and a Ph.D. in 1961. It was at Columbia that he met and married his wife of thirty-seven years, Nell Commager. Brief teaching stints at Williams College and Roosevelt University were followed in the 1960s by positions at the University of Iowa and Northwestern University. In 1970 he was persuaded by his erstwhile comrade, Eugene Genovese, to come to the University of Rochester, where he remained for the rest of his career. Appointed Don Alonzo Watson Professor of History in 1979, he served as chair of the history department from 1985 to 1993.

Lasch was the author of nine books: The American Liberals and the Russian Revolution (1962), his doctoral dissertation, The New Radicalism in America 1889–1963 (1965), The Agony of the American Left (1969), The World of Nations (1973), Haven in a Heartless World (1977), The Culture of Narcissism (1979), his most well-known work, The Minimal Self (1984), and The True and Only Heaven (1991). Despite the pain of the cancer that eventually took his life, writing remained at the heart of Lasch's daily experience to the end. He devoted much of his last months to completing The Revolt of the Elites and the Betrayal of Democracy, which will be published by W.W. Norton in the fall of 1994.

More well regarded outside than inside the historical profession, Lasch rarely wrote for professional journals, preferring the pages of magazines such as the Nation, the New York Review of Books, Harper's, and the New Republic and the wider public they allowed him. Never honored with the prizes and offices professional historians bestow on the well-behaved leaders of their guild, Lasch rarely attended annual meetings. And when he did so, it was to say such things as "The political culture of modern societies consists largeley of an implicit argument about the past, and it is the job of historical criticism to make that argument explicit and to point out the political consequences that follow from any given reading of the past. For a variety of reasons--professional caution, political indifference or despair, doubts about their ability to make themselves understood by a broader public, the embarrassment of taking ideas seriously--historians have retreated from their role as social critics."

Whatever his shortcomings as a professional insider, Lasch discharged the obligations of his vocation with rare ability. He was a brilliant undergraduate teacher and a model master to apprentice historians. And with an administrative style worthy of a leading critic of administrative power, he led the way in rebuilding a fractious Rochester department into a community of scholars.

An inimitable voice has been stilled. For those who knew only his work, that voice resounded with severe naysaying--echoing the Calvinist jeremiads Lasch so admired. But for those who knew him personally, Kit Lasch was a gentle man of unsparing generosity and diffident grace. He is survived by his wife, four children, and two grandchildren.

Ambrose Saricks

Ambrose Saricks, professor emirtus of history at Kansas University, died on October 24, 1993, in Lawrence, Kansas. Professor Saricks was born in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, on May 2, 1915. He received his A.B. and M.A. from Bucknell University and served in the Army Air Corps during World War II. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin in 1950. Saricks taught at Ohio State University from 1947 to 1950 before moving to the University of Kansas in 1950. In addition to holding a number of positions in the history department, Saricks also served as associate dean of the graduate school from 1966 to 1970. After two years as dean of the graduate school and associate dean of faculties at Wichita State University, he became vice-chancellor for academic affairs at Kansas, a post he held for three years before returning to full-time teaching. Professor Saricks was an active member of the American Historical Association, the Society for French Historical Studies, the Society of Nineteenth-Century Studies, and the American Association of University Professors. His research specialty was eighteenth-century France. He is best known for editing in two volumes in the series A Bibliography of the Frank E. Melvin Collection of Pamphlets of the French Revolution in the University of Kansas Libraries (1960) and for publishing a biography, Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemours (1965).

Professor Saricks's students remember him as a learned and gentle man with great patience. At the University of Kansas in the late 1960s and early 1970s, he earned a reputation as a statesman as he worked with both students and faculty to alleviate campus tension by creating student-faculty governance. He also demonstrated that the work of an academic and an administrator did not preclude involvement in the community or developing a full life outside the university. He was active in reestablishing the Lawrence Unitarian Fellowship, and is also well known in Lawrence for his involvement in the Lawrence Community Theater, the Kansas Chatauqua, and his support of the theater in general. In the words of former Kansas University chancellor Ray Nichols: "He was a remarkable man in that he had so many talents. He was a man everyone respected, and he will be missed greatly."
