Washington College
Commencement

DR.. Kent Roberts Greenfield,
noted Johns Hopkins historian who
is scheduled as June Commence
ment speaker for Washington Col
lege, was recently knighted by the
Italian Government.
In an announcement recently
that DIR. Greenfield would deliver
the Commencement address here,
the story neglected to mention that
the former chairman of the Johns
Hopkins University history depart
ment has received an award, sign
ed by the President of the Republic,
in recognition of his many years of
devotion to Italian studies.
DIR. Greenfield rec eived the
Cross of a Cavaliere Ufficiale Al
Merito, and the citation says it was
granted for the scholars import
ant scientific and historical stud
les of Italy (Which have strength
ened) the ties of friendship be-
tween the United States and Italy.
DR.. Greenfield recently completed
photography of American publica-
tions on Italian history. Since he
left John Hopkins in 1912 on mill
tary leave, the emeritus professor
has had little time to devote to his
favorite subject-Italy.
From 1916 until his retirement
in 1858 he was editor of the first
u. S. Army in World War II. He is,
however, an authority on Italy in
the Nineteenth Century, and is
known for his work, Economics
and Liberalism in the Risorgimen-
to-" which was translated later
into Italian.
In 1856 and 1857 the 67-year-old
historian was president of the So
ciety for Italian Historical Studies
and is presently chairman of the
committee which annually awards
the author of the best paper on
Italian studies.
He will deliver the Washington
Colleg Commencement address
here on June 5 in Russell Gymnas-
ium.
