Obituary: Noel Earl Polk, age 69, passed away peacefully at his home in Jackson on 21, 2012, surrounded by his family.

Born in Picayune, Mississippi on 23, 1943, Noel received his B.A. and M.A. from Mississippi , and in 1970 he earned his PhD from the University of South Carolina.

Noel was an internationally recognized literary scholar and gifted professor. Regarded by many as the preeminent Faulkner scholar of his generation, he was a central figure in Faulkner studies for forty years. He did the editorial work for the corrected editions of all of Faulkners novels. Most recently he has coedited a new edition of Faulkners THE SOUND AND THE FURY, finally fulfilling the authors plan to employ different colors of ink for sections of the opening chapter.

Noels interpretive books and critical essays on Faulkner spanned decades and have given significant direction to Faulkner studies. These include CHILDREN OF THE DARK HOUSE; TEXT AND CONTENT IN FAULKNER (University Press of Mississippi) and FAULKNERS REQUIEM FOR A NUN: A CRITICAL STUDY. He wrote as well on Eudora Welty, notably the 2008 FAULKNER AND WELTY AND THE SOUTHERN LITERARY TRADITION (UPM). His EUDORA WELTY; A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF HER WORK (UPM) is the standard reference text for Welty studies. He edited MISSISSIPPIS PINEY WOODS PEOPLE, AN ANTHOLOGY OF MISSISSIPPI WRITERS, and the restored edition of Robert Penn Warrens ALL THE KINGS MEN. He also wrote a memoir, OUTSIDE THE SOUTHERN MYTH, and recently published a collection of poems, WALKING SAFARI.

A widely traveled lecturer, he spoke to literary audiences throughout Europe and in Russia, Australia, Japan, and South America. He held guest professorships in France, but is most remembered by his friends and students for his years of inspiring teaching and unselfish mentoring of graduate students in the U.S. For twenty seven years he was Professor of English at the University of Southern Mississippi and editor of THE SOUTHERN QUARTERLY. He joined the faculty at Mississippi State University in 2004, where he edited the MISSISSIPPI QUARTERLY and served on the advisory committee for the of Arts and Sciences. He also joined in the spirited support of the arts in Mississippi, having helped found the Mississippi Institute of Arts and Letters to recognize artistic achievement in the state.

Noel will be remembered as fun-loving, generous, kind, gracious and encouraging. He lived life fully--loved to travel, loved his rose bushes, loved going to baseball games, loved his grandchildren, and loved a good gin and tonic. He was absolutely devoted to his children and grandchildren, and despite being a world traveler, he was happiest at home with his friends and family.

He is loved and remembered by his children, Scott Polk of Orlando, Florida, and Jennifer Polk Heidelberg (Michael) of Jackson, Mississippi; three grandchildren, Sam, Emily and Francie Heidelberg, all of Jackson; brother Mickey Polk (Angela) of
