Home About Us Overview Scientific Advisory Panel ... Search ABOUT US October 31, 2010 The Fields Medal John Charles Fields About Us Index After 1928: Fields Considers a Medal The Fields Medal Fields' plans for the medal were meticulously carried out after his death by Synge, who obtained IMU support for it at the Zurich Congress (1932). Synge's description of the meeting of the IMU executive at which the medal was accepted is amusing. There was some discussion of the notion of a medal. Some members felt that mathematics should be its own reward (Synge privately felt that way), while others supported it as a positive international gesture at a time when such actions were needed. There was confusion at the meeting on the part of the chair, IMU President W.H. Young, over who was who, and in this slightly absent-minded, comedic atmosphere, Fields' medal was accepted by the Council of the IMU and the following day by delegates. When the medal was established in 1932, there was little publicity about it and surprisingly few articles in mathematics bulletins or elsewhere. It has grown in importance, however, with the passing of time, and has now become an international symbol of mathematics. This is likely because over the past eighty years, the "Fields Medallists" and their work have added lustre to the modest medal J.C. Fields founded.
