By this, he meant the ability to recognize typological or evolutionary change in letters and scripts. Frank, like his teacher William Foxwell Albright, was a master of typological method. In fact, typology was the dominant feature of his epigraphic work, from the origins of the alphabet to the development of the scripts of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Indeed, he has written about the importance of typology itself. Because Frank Cross has so dominated the study of the ancient Near East in the last 60 years, Aufrecht once asked him what he considered his primary field of study to be. Without hesitation, he said, ?Epigraphy.? It seems, therefore, that the field that he loved and to which he contributed so much is an appropriate subject for this Festschrift in his honor, which is being presented by his colleagues, friends, and former students. Included are an appreciation by Peter Machinist and a contribution by the late Pierre Bordreuil. 606 $aInschrift$2gnd 606 $aSemitistik$2gnd 606 $aEpigraphik$2gnd 606 $aInscriptions, Semitic$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00973955 606 $aInscriptions, Ancient$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00973846 606 $aInscriptions, Ancient 606 $aInscriptions, Semitic 607 $aAlter Orient$2gnd 608 $aAufsatzsammlung. 608 $aBibliographie. 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aInschrift 615 0$aSemitistik 615 0$aEpigraphik 615 0$aInscriptions, Semitic. 615 0$aInscriptions, Ancient. 615 0$aInscriptions, Ancient. 615 0$aInscriptions, Semitic. 676 $a492/.041 701 $aHackett$b Jo Ann$01070682 701 $aAufrecht$b Walter Emanuel$f1942-$0978000 702 $aCross$b Frank Moore$f1921-2012$4hnr 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910464331603321 996 $a?An Eye for Form?$92564716 997 $aUNINA
