Sinopsis

Excerpt from Institute for Advanced Study: Report for the Academic Year 1997-98

The Institute's foremost objective is the advancement of knowledge and the deep ening of understanding across a broad range of the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. One of the Institute's unique strengths is its small and distinguished per manent Faculty, well-established scholars whose broad interests and extensive ties to the larger academic world are reflected in their own work and also in the guidance and direction they provide to the Institute's visiting Members. The Faculty defines the major themes and questions which become the focus of each School's seminars and other activities, and the Faculty selects and works closely with visiting Mem bers. Small in number and organized in four Schools (historical Studies, Mathe maties, Natural Sciences, and Social Science), the Faculty and Members can inter act with one another without the departmental and disciplinary barriers found in universities.
