Abstract

Abstract Braj B. (Behari) Kachru was born in Srinagar, Kashmir, India, in 1932. He died on 29 July 2016 at Urbana, Illinois, USA at the age of 84 years. “Kachru,” by the way, is an Englishization of his name, which is from the Kashmiri word katsur , “brown.” His family are Pandits (from Sanskrit pandit , “learnèd man, scholar”); that is, he was by heritage as well as by inclination a seeker after rational explanations and a willing instructor of willing students.
