Ioan Mărginean, omul

Abstract

Ioan Mărginean was more than a professor, in the narrow sense of producing and sharing academic knowledge. He was, above all, deeply human, and this was reflected in the elegance of his leadership and in his strong sense of responsibility toward those who worked with him. In this piece, I recall a few ordinary yet telling moments that reveal his way of acting and the everyday forms of support and guidance he offered to generations of scholars over time.
