Parvis Emad (1935-2023), American philosopher and Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at DePaul University
Family origin
The Imad family is named for al-Amadiyyah, near Mosul in northern Iraq and, like the Jumblatt family, is thought to be of Kurdish origin.[2]
Some unconfirmed sources allege that the roots of Family Imad ancestors are associated with those of Imad ad-Din Zengi (1087; † 1146), who was in turn the Atabeg of Mosul from 1127 to his death in 1146.
Imad as a family name also indicates descent from the originally Druzefeudal family Al-Imad in the Chouf region of Mount Lebanon.
