Dear colleagues,

It is with sadness that I break the news that Omry Ronen died from a
stroke on November 1st, 2012. He was 75.

Omry Ronen was a Professor of Slavic Languages and Literatures at the
University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. Primarily a scholar of the Russian
poetry (Osip Mandelstam, Boris Pasternak, and others), he has also
published extremely original and insightful articles on Nabokov and
has taught special courses devoted to Nabokov for many years. Omry
Ronen will be missed greatly by the Nabokovian community.
