We are deeply saddened by the death of Lisa Jardine. Lisa was Professor of Renaissance Studies at »Ê¼Ò»ªÈË, Director of the Centre for Editing Lives and Letters and Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society, to name just a few of her many engagements and accolades.

Lisa was a distinguished scholar of Low Countries History and her fascinating and insightful work on the history of Anglo-Dutch relations includes Going Dutch: How England Plundered Holland's Glory, two books on Erasmus, and most recently , published in Open Access with UCL Press.

Lisa was kind enough to give a wonderful lecture on Sir Isaac Newton and Christiaan Huygens: Anglo-Dutch Science and Politics around 1688 for the launch of the Centre in March 2014.

Lisa was an inspiring, warm and generous person and made a deep impact on all who knew her. The Centre looks forward to celebrating her contribution to Anglo-Dutch Studies.
