ABSTRACT
Neil Walker recalls very well all three Acts of Zenon Bankowski's intellectual life. Each has left a deep and quite different impression on him, but each has also contributed to the integrated picture he hold of his friend. He read Images of Law in 1978 as a callow and impressionable youth just embarked on the second year of his undergraduate law studies at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. Neil was introduced to the book by Pete Robson, his jurisprudence course lecturer and Bankowski's erstwhile student classmate at the University of Dundee. He well remember Pete Robson telling me that, his theoretical interests and philosophical sensibility not withstanding, Bankowski had also been a good enough and sufficiently curious doctrinal lawyer to win the Scots Law undergraduate prize at Dundee. As Claudio and Maks reminded us in their Introduction, Bankowski is indeed more than a philosopher. He is a jurist. The anxious jurist is also the jurist of anxiety.
