11. listopad 1831 – 17. září 1904
Daniel Willard Fiske byl americký knihovník a učenec, který se proslavil jako autorita v oblasti severoevropských jazyků, zejména islandštiny a její kultury. Jeho akademická dráha zahrnovala studium v Evropě i Spojených státech a významnou roli při založení a rozvoji knihovny Cornell University. Fiskeho práce se zaměřuje na hluboké pochopení jazyka a kultury, což z něj činí klíčovou postavu v oblasti severoevropských studií. Jeho odkaz spočívá v obohacení akademického světa o cenné znalosti a v budování základů pro budoucí badatele.
