Roald Hoffmann’s unsurpassed accomplishments on both sides of the humanities/sciences border (which much of his career has been aimed at demolishing) have been recognized by, inter alia, the 2022 SLSA Lifetime Achievement Award and the 1981 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. His work spans a wide range of SLSA-related topics: the creative nature of science in general and chemistry in particular, the central role of narrative in scientific investigation and reporting, the nature of the scientific article, the importance of artistic representation for chemistry, and others. He has also written several science-themed plays and an extensive body of poetry, and worked to make chemistry accessible to the nonspecialist. This essay highlights some of his most significant contributions to SLSA’s mission and goals.

罗尔德·霍夫曼 (Roald Hoffmann) 在人文/科学领域所取得的无与伦比的成就（他职业生涯的大部分时间都是为了摧毁这些成就）获得了 2022 年 SLSA 终身成就奖和 1981 年诺贝尔化学奖等奖项的认可。他的作品涵盖了与 SLSA 相关的广泛主题：一般科学和特别是化学的创造性本质、叙事在科学研究和报告中的核心作用、科学文章的性质、艺术表现对化学的重要性、和别的。他还写了几部以科学为主题的戏剧和大量诗歌，并致力于让非专业人士也能接触到化学。本文重点介绍了他对 SLSA 使命和目标的一些最重要贡献。
