We invite graduate students and faculty in the humanities and social
sciences to submit papers for the 23rd annual Middle East History and Theory

We welcome a broad range of submissions, from across the disciplines
(including, but not limited to, anthropology, art history, cinema and media
studies, history, literature, sociology and religion) and dealing with any
topic that has affected the Middle East from the 7th century onwards.

This year, the keynote address will be delivered by Rashid Khalidi, Edward
Said Professor of Arab Studies at Columbia University. The plenary speaker
will be Donald Quataert, Professor of History at SUNY, Binghamton. The
conference will also feature a free concert by the University of Chicago's
Middle East Music Ensemble and a complementary lamb roast at the end of
proceedings Saturday.

Those wishing to participate should send a 250-word abstract to the
conference organizers at mehat2008 at gmail.com by February 15, 2008. We also
