In Memory
Th. Emil Homerin (1955–2020)
The fields of religious and Islamic studies have suffered a great loss with the passing of Th. Emil Homerin in 91×ÔÅÄÂÛ̳, New York, on December 26, 2020. Those who knew him personally will always remember his generosity, kindness, and insights. To this lucky group, we must also add all those who read and benefited from his sensitive and thoughtful work on Sufi poetry over the years. Taken as a whole, we will all miss his ability to convey some of the most complex and lyrical aspects of mystical thought through his brilliant translations and analyses. Th. Emil Homerin was truly one of a kind; a humanist to the very core.
