Wilfred Lambert R.I.P.

WILFRED LAMBERT, R.I.P. I've been meaning to blog on this sad news for some time. Mark Goodacre has a good roundup post: Death of Wilfred Lambert, Obituary and Reflections. I never properly met Professor Lambert, although I did hear him give a lecture in the 1980s when I was a postgraduate student. Much of his work in Assyriology was of direct interest to biblical studies, notably his books on Babylonian wisdom literature and (with Alan Millard) the Atrahasis Epic.
