This is very sad news indeed.  Allison was a unique scholar, making research contributions in the critically important area of post-14th century South Asian studies.  Some of her many writings are available at academia.edu page.  And her archive page at Columbia. 

I was surprised and delighted a couple of years ago when I learned that Allison grew up in Edmonton, Canada, where I now live. 

My thoughts are with her family, friends and students.

Professor Allison Busch, of Columbia University, passed away on October 19, 2019 after a long illness. It seemed appropriate to inform members of this list, as many of us would have known Allison personally and / or through her important work on Hindi literature of the early modern period:
