Souvenirs de la jeunesse de Max Wajskop

On 14 March 1995, an academic ceremony was organised by the Universite Libre de Bruxelles to commemorate the memory of Professor Max Wajskop. Under the presidence of Professor J. Vromans, Directeur of the Institute, homage talks were given by Professor J.L. Vanherweghem, Rector of the University, Professor G. Schnek, Mr. M. Hirsch and Christel Sorin who offered, on behalf of the Speech Community, to the children of Max, Mara and Bruno, the recently published book Levels in Speech Communication: Relations and Interactions. A Tribute to Max Wajskop (Elsevier, Amsterdam, 1995). The ceremony ended with a talk by Professor M. Rossi on “The evolution of phonetics: A fundamental and applied science”, that most certainly Max would have highly appreciated.
