I've mentioned a secret project a couple of times before. This year marks 50 years since the founding of the Genizah Research Unit in Cambridge, and we are planning some big announcements to celebrate. More details soon!
copies just arrived
—Andalus— Andalus’s gardens unveil bridal beauty and sweet breath. Its mornings glint teeth-white, its sunset dark as lips. The east wind wafts in and I cry out— my longing for Andalus. —Ibn Khafāja (Valencia, d. 1139)

Having just published a book on Jews in the Sasanian Empire (x.com/Simcha_Gross/s…) and as I work on a chapter for my next book on the 614 episode, it seems worth emphasizing to "Slow Boring" hosts & friends that rushing to wiki for facile historical curios ain't the way. 1

Excellent news! My 2021 monograph Browsing through the Sultan's Bookshelves is now open access! Peruse and be bemused! Download at academia.edu/42787577/Brows…
Our article on plague, the Mongols, and textual evidence (or to be precise, the lack of textual historical evidence for a 13th-century plague outbreak in Baghdad and Syria, transmitted by the Mongols) is finally out! very excited to see what you'll think. cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Newly out: fascinating edited volume on Ignaz Goldziher's correspondence. I contributed an article on Goldziher's legacy in Jerusalem that reveals rare, unpublished testimony to his influence on Hebrew University. Bonus: it opens with my favorite isnād ever!
Glad to see this volume out finally with a contribution by yours truly. Some of the chapters are open access (though not mine, unforutnately). brill.com/display/title/…
💌 Your letter arrived and heartened and cured me after sickness had almost destroyed me. Reading your letter it was as if my eyes could see you there standing in person before me. —marginal note from a Ẓāhiriyya library (Damascus) manuscript
My book /Traces of the Prophets: Relics and Sacred Spaces in Early Islam/ is out w/ @EdinburghUP. It explores how relic veneration/visitation ritually & rhetorically shaped Muslim identities in the first centuries of Islam. Thanks to all who helped it be! edinburghuniversitypress.com/book-traces-of…
A new article of mine about the field of Islamic History, the meaning of the label "Islamic," and the opportunity costs this entails for who usually gets included in grand narratives and who doesn't
