Joseph Black was born in Bordeaux, France, the fourth child of parents of Scottish extraction. His father was a native of Belfast engaged in the Bordeaux wine trade his mother was a daughter of an Aberdeen man who had settled in Bordeaux. In all. Black s parents had twelve children. At the age of twelve Black was sent to school in Belfast, and around 1744 proceeded to the University of Glasgow. Black followed the standard curriculum until pressed by his father to choose a profession. He opted for medicine. Black began to study anatomy and chemisti-y. William Cullen had recently inaugurated lectures in chemisti y that were to have a decisive influence on Black s career. Recognizing Black s aptitude, Cullen employed Black as his laboratory assistant. 

The most important contribution I lertz made in this inaugural lecture was his prediction, based on his estimates of the energy sources available, that ultimately the Earth was completely dependent on the Sun for the light and heat it needed to support life. Of course, this picture would change after Henri Becquerel discovered radioactivity in 1896, and thus introduced the nuclear age of physics. 

After Kamerlingh Onnes was appointed professor in experimental physics at the University of Leiden in 1882, he stated in his inaugural lecture that physics is capable of improving the well-being of society and proclaimed that this should be accomplished primari-...

Chemistry used to be less "deep," less "fundamental" than physics, said Charles Coulson in his inaugural lecture of an Oxford chair in theoretical chemistry in 1973, but "this is no longer the case." C. A. Coulson, "Theoretical Chemistry Past and Future," lecture delivered before the University of Oxford on February 23, 1973, ed. S. L. Altman (Oxford Clarendon, 1974) 69. 

In his inaugural lecture for the chair of theoretical chemistry at Oxford in 1973, Charles Coulson recalled a student asking him, "Why are you not located in physical chemistry " Nemst and other physical chemists at the turn of the century had thought of physical chemistry as theoretical chemistry. In contrast, by 1970, as Coulson put it, "the theoretical chemist is concerned not just with physical chemistry but with all branches of chemistry." 1... 

In his inaugural lecture for the chair of theoretical physics at King s College, Coulson noted that the first bill he received at the college was for a calculating machine, and it was made out to the department of "Theatrical Physics." In C. A. Coulson Papers, Bod.Oxford.

Paracelsus s lectures had incited controversy and he didn t shy away from provoking more. June 24 was St. John s Day, a day of commencement celebrations when students traditionally hurled whatever they no longer wanted or needed into a bonfire. It was also only three weeks after Paracelsus s inaugural lecture. Cheered on by boisterous students, he joined the merrymaking, publicly burning a book by Galen and the Canon of Avicenna.

Events started promisingly for women. The London Chemical Society seemed to take pleasure in noting that women had participated in its events. At a pre-inaugural lecture on 7 October 1824, it was reported that Several ladies were present, taking a warm interest in all that was said, encouraging the lecturer by their smiles, and ensuring order and decorum by their presence. 6... 

At the subsequent inaugural lecture, it was mentioned that among the 300 persons attending, there were a great many ladies. The address was given by George Birkbeck,7 who specifically welcomed the participation of women ...

To illustrate this point, let me quote one of the leading theoreticians in our field, Roy McWeeny, who in his 1967 Inaugural Lecture at the University of Sheffield [74] showed a page from Clzek s 1966 paper (page 4262 of Ref. [73]) displaying the L-CCD diagrams and CCD equations, which he commented by the statement ...
