This message was forwarded to me by Prof. Mona Baker
On 4 February 2010, the great translation theorist and scholar Professor Dr.
Dr. h. c. Hans J. Vermeer, our invaluable and very dear teacher and friend,
departed from us. We, his friends and students and everyone who knew him, feel
this loss deeply; the pain and emptiness caused by his passing away is
indescribable. The world of translation studies has lost one of its founders,
one of its most productive and creative theorists, and a magnanimous, modest
and caring teacher, who was the source of so many works and who inspired
countless researchers and scholars. We offer our deepest condolences to all his
friends, colleagues and students and to the international translation studies
community.
