Jochem Schindler
Jochem "Joki" Schindler (8 November 1944 – 24 December 1994) was an Austrian Indo-Europeanist. In spite of his comparatively thin bibliography, he made important contributions, in particular to the theory of Proto-Indo-European nominal inflection and ablaut. He taught at University of Vienna from 1972 to 1978, as a professor at Harvard University from 1978 to 1987, then at Vienna. A meticulous scholar, he also recognized that mistakes were inevitable, and his phrase "courage to err" (German: Mut zum Irrtum) became popular with his colleagues, including Calvert Watkins. With Watkins and others, he was a founding member of the East Coast Indo-European Conference in 1982.
