Notica triste. Um grande lógico. Algumas coisas do meu "livro de memória". Encontrei-me (como vários colegas ) muitas vezes com Kosta Dosen em diversos lugares (Toulouse em particular, quando Kosta fugia um pouco da então conturbada Belgrado).
Me lembro que Kosta esteve no Encontro Brasileiro de Lógica em Salvador em maio de 1996, e ao ser informado que era outono no Brasil, ele disse : "Caramba, vocês mudam tudo no Brasil- não só mudaram a primavera para outono, mas ainda conseguiram esquentar o outono?" Uma outra vez, quando estavamos ouvindo nosso petulante amigo Jean-Yves Girard, que se referiu àqueles que fazem " lógica con la costa de la mano", Kosta me disse " Esta vendo? Ele se refere ao mesmo tempo a mim e ao Newton da Costa, isso não pode ser! E eu acrescentei " E talvez junto com o Costas Drossos..." Viverá nas nossas memórias, abraços tristes Walter 2017-10-22 13:11 GMT-02:00 Valeria de Paiva <valeria.depa...@gmail.com>: > Sad news, as Peter SH says > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Peter Schroeder-Heister <p...@uni-tuebingen.de> > Date: Sun, Oct 22, 2017 at 5:07 AM > Subject: [PT] Sad news: Kosta Dosen > To: proofthe...@lists.bath.ac.uk > > > Yesterday, 21 October 2017, our dear friend and colleague Kosta Dosen passed > away; losing his long struggle with cancer.
