Theodor Meron: Poems on Being, on Love, and on Grief

Judge Theodor Meron CMG launches his newly published poetry collection, Poems on Being, on Love, and on Grief. This event features a poetry reading by Judge Meron, followed by a discussion with Dr Rebecca Bullard. An Honorary Fellow of Trinity, Theodor Meron is a judge and former President of the United Nations war crimes tribunals. He served as the presiding Judge of the Appeals Chambers of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia and the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda and the Residual Mechanism for Criminal Tribunals. A leading scholar of international humanitarian law, human rights, and international criminal law, he has authored a dozen books on international law. He is also a former Honorary President of the American Society of International Law and a former Editor-in-Chief of the American Journal of International Law. "Judge Theodor Meron CMG has published many books in the genre of law, but this is his first publication of poetry. He gently takes the reader on a trip through love and loss and even the simple 'motions' and sometimes difficult 'emotions' of just "being." This book is also a tribute to his wife and the love of his life "Monique" and it is truly a poignant and hopeful read in some places and a haunting and sorrowful look at the empty place in those left behind to carry on after the crushing loss of a loved one." - Candice James, Poet Laureate Emerita, New Westminster, BC Canada
