Jamie was an infinite treasure, a generous mentor to the graduate students fortunate to enjoy his guidance at Emory and a brilliant mind whose valuable work will outlast him. 😔
The GHS is saddened by the recent passing of Professor Emeritus James van Horn Melton (Emory)

Prof. Melton served on the advisory board of 'German History' and was an eminent scholar of early modern German and Habsburg Europe, the Enlightenment, and the Atlantic World.
