C. J. F. Williams
Christopher John Fardo Williams (31 December 1930 – 25 March 1997) was a British philosopher. His areas of interest were philosophical logic, on which topic he did most of his original work, and Ancient philosophy, as an editor and translator.
==Life==
Christopher Williams was born and grew up in Midsomer Norton in Somerset in the United Kingdom. He was educated at Shrewsbury School and Balliol College, Oxford where he took a First in Greats and became a convert to Roman Catholicism, a faith to which he was openly devoted for the rest of his life. Planning to enter the Benedictine Order, he became a novice at Downside Abbey, but shortly thereafter was struck by polio which left him severely disabled and permanently wheelchair-bound.
Instead he became an academic philosopher, lecturing at the University of Hull before moving to Bristol where he taught in the philosophy department as lecturer, Reader and Professor until he died following a cardiac arrest.〔Richard Swinburne, "Obituary: Professor C. J. F. Williams" ''The Independent'', 29 March 1997〕 Despite his disability, Williams commuted between Bristol and his home in Midsomer Norton and attended many philosophical conferences around the world. He also edited the philosophy journal ''Analysis''.
