      <image:title>MEI Events | 2010-present - Borrowing Authority from Death with artist Amitis Motevalli - About this Series</image:title>
      <image:caption>In conversation with artists from the Middle East and North-Africa as well as its diasporas, the series examines intersecting inequalities and body politics expressed, represented and transgressed in both visual and performance art. Against the backdrop of war and conflict, the rise of authoritarian regimes, displacement and diaspora mobilization, Islamophobia, ongoing orientalist depictions, and challenges linked to the Covid 19 pandemic, this series explores the ways in which artists are informed by and/or contribute to anti-racist, transnational feminist and queer praxis.</image:caption>

      <image:title>MEI Events | 2010-present - Adab Colloquium: An Emotional Biography of an Insecure Scholar in the Early Modern Ottoman Hierarchy of Learning - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The intellectual history of the medieval Islamicate and the early modern Ottoman world has been written by privileging the deeds of "great" scholars. What about those less fortunate scholars who indeed constituted the greater majority and whose seemingly insignificant lives and literary production present a more realistic picture of the social, economic, and emotional realities surrounding the scholarly culture?

      <image:caption>How can notions of civilization and identity help us think about the politics of literature in the Nada? This paper tackles Khalil al-Khüri's definition of civilization (tamaddun) as an untranslatable element of the social body whose corruption threatens its own reproduction, and considers the implications of al-Khüri's understanding of tamaddun for Arab literary and intellectual history.

      <image:title>MEI Events | 2010-present - Adab Colloquium: Proto-Secular Spaces? Mapping Infidelity in the Poetry of ʿAṭṭār - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>In this Colloquium, Cyrus Ali Zargar will discuss his article entitled "Sober in Mecca, Drunk in Byzantium: Antinomian Space in the Poetry of ʿAṭṭār." Like other classical Persian Sufi poets, ʿAṭṭār takes interest in spaces associated with infidelity: the tavern, ruins, monastery, church, and idol-temple. Subversive and even transformational, these spaces liberate the subject from, among other things, piety itself. This paper explores the idea that we might call such symbolic spaces “proto-secular.” Learn more about the Adab Colloquium at MEI here. If you are interested in attending this event please download the pre-circulated reading and RSVP below.</image:caption>

      <image:title>MEI Events | 2010-present - BOOK TALK | Democratic Transition and the Rise of Populist Majoritarianism: Constitutional Reform in Greece and Turkey</image:title>
      <image:caption>October 31st from 12-2PM Knox Hall Room 207 Ioannis N. Grigoriadis, Associate Professor and Jean Monnet Chair of European Studies at the Department of Political Science and Public Administration at Bilkent University, Turkey, will be discussing his new book, "Democratic Transition and the Rise of Populist Majoritarianism: Constitutional Reform in Greece and Turkey". This comparative study explores the impact of populist majoritarianism on Greek and Turkish democratic transition. Using the case studies of Greece and Turkey, the author argues that while majoritarianism is often celebrated as a manifestation of popular sovereignty, it can undermine institutional performance. In cases of transition states where social capital is scarce and polarization is high, it can even upset the process of democratic consolidation, contributing to a confrontational and inefficient democratic regime. A “mild democracy” would require a calibrated system of checks and balances, trust- and consensus-building mechanisms. This book will be of use to students and scholars interested in the fields of Greek and Turkish politics, law and democratization. http://www.springer.com/us/book/9783319575551 Special offer - get 20% of the print book or ebook!

      <image:title>News Spring 2022 - Announcement | Bulliet Assistant Professor of Islamic History - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Dr. Karjoo-Ravary is a historian of medieval Islam focusing broadly on the intersection of intellectual, social, and visual histories of premodern Islam, with a special attention to historiography, Sufism, and poetry in Arabic, Persian, and Turkic languages. His current book project, tentatively titled Muhammad’s Song: Politics, Performance, and Cosmology in the 14th Century, looks at the formation of post-Mongol Islamic monarchy through the lens of Kadi Burhaneddin, a scholar turned poet-king in the 14th century whose writings prefigure many of the hallmarks of later empires. Karjoo-Ravary’s works have been published in multiple venues, including the Journal of Sufi Studies, MAVCOR Journal, as well as popular venues such as Slate, Aljazeera English, the CBC, and the BBC. Dr. Karjoo-Ravary holds a PhD from the University of Pennsylvania, and has been a fellow at the Bard Graduate Center and the Wolf Humanities Center. He joins Columbia from Bucknell University, where he was the Josephine Hildreth Detmer and Zareen Taj Mirza Assistant Professor of Islamic Studies.</image:caption>
