Abstract

The text presents the activities of Dr. Kathleen Vaughan Wilkes, a philosopher from the University of Oxford in the Inter-University Centre Dubrovnik (IUC) from the beginning of the 1980s to the end of the millennium. Dr. Wilkes was co-directing the longest standing IUC course Philosophy of Science, but she also initiated other IUC academic programmes. As a member of the IUC governing bodies, she was highly engaged in securing scholarships for participants from Central and East Europe in IUC programmes, mostly through the Open Society Foundation. Dr. Wilkes played a crucial role in spreading information from the city of Dubrovnik during the attacks of the Yugoslav People's Army in 1991 and during Croatian’s struggle for independence, for which she was awarded honorary citizenship and posthumously one of the squares was named after her.
凯西·威尔克斯在杜布罗夫尼克国际大学中心
本文介绍了牛津大学杜布罗夫尼克大学间中心(IUC)的哲学家凯瑟琳·沃恩·威尔克斯博士从20世纪80年代初到本世纪末的活动。Wilkes博士是IUC历史最悠久的科学哲学课程的共同指导,但她也发起了IUC的其他学术课程。作为IUC理事机构的成员,她积极致力于为来自中欧和东欧的IUC方案参与者争取奖学金,主要是通过开放社会基金会。在1991年南斯拉夫人民军(Yugoslav People’s Army)发动袭击期间,以及克罗地亚争取独立的斗争期间,威尔克斯博士在从杜布罗夫尼克传播信息方面发挥了至关重要的作用,她因此被授予荣誉公民身份,在她死后,有一个广场以她的名字命名。
