Ernst Badian (August 8, 1925 – February 1, 2011) was an Austrian-born classical scholar who served as a professor at Harvard University, USA, from 1971 to 1998.〔"Ernst Badian, professor of history emeritus, 85" ''Harvard Gazette'' February 14, 2011 http://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2011/02/ernst-badian-professor-of-history-emeritus-85/〕 Badian was one of the leading historians of Greece and Rome of the 20th century. He was born in Vienna in 1925. In 1938, in view of the growing persecution of Jews in Austria and Germany, he moved with his parents to New Zealand. There he attended Canterbury College, receiving a B.A. in 1945 and an M.A. the following year. He then went to University College, Oxford, studying under George Cawkwell and getting a B.A. (First Class in Litt. Hum.) in 1950, an M.A. in 1954, and D. Phil. in 1956. In addition, he took a Litt. D. from New Zealand's Victoria University of Wellington in 1962. After teaching in the universities of Sheffield, Durham, and Leeds in Britain, and at the State University of New York, Buffalo, he was appointed to Harvard’s Department of History in 1971, and was cross-appointed to the Department of the Classics in 1973. He became John Moors Cabot Professor of History ''Emeritus'' in 1998. Badian was elected a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1974.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amacad.org/publications/BookofMembers/ChapterB.pdf )〕 An active promoter of classical studies in the United States, he helped found ''The American Journal of Ancient History'' (1976), the Association of Ancient Historians (1974), and the New England Ancient History Colloquium. In 1999 Austria awarded him the Cross of Honor for Science and Art (''Österreichische Ehrenkreuz für Wissenschaft und Kunst''). Badian died at the age of 85 after a fall in his Quincy, Massachusetts, home. He was survived by his widow Nathlie, his children Hugh and Rosemary, and several grandchildren and great-grandchildren. The Ernst Badian Collection of Roman Republican Coins〔(The Ernst Badian Collection of Roman Republican Coins ), Rutgers University, USA.〕 is housed by the Special Collections and University Archives of the Rutgers University libraries. At the 2012 meeting of the (Association of Ancient Historians ) in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, ancient historians T. Corey Brennan and Jerzy Linderski delivered papers reflecting on the historical methodologies employed by Badian. ==Works== * ''Foreign Clientelae 264–70 B.C.''
