This is very sad news. Only a few days ago I thought about my meeting
with Roberto Busa when he got the first Busa Prize in 1998 in
Debrecen.<br><br>
Let's strive to get so old and to do, next to the other things we have
and want to do in our lives, at least part of what he has done for the
Humanities<br><br>

it is my sad duty to announce that father Roberto Busa SJ passed away on
9 August at the age of 97.<br>
He gave his last talk at a conference less than 2 years ago (ninth
edition of the Treebanks and Linguistic Theories Workshop,
Milan).<br><br>
I feel so lucky for having met him in my life and for working every day
on the "Index Thomisticus".<br>
The field of corpus and computational linguistics lost one of his
pioneers. We will all miss him so much.<br><br>
