Colleagues, 

At the juncture of Africa, Europe, and Asia, the Middle East boasts deserts, mountains, steppes, valleys and river deltas. Across the region diverse mammals, reptiles, birds, and insects, as well as marine organisms and invertebrates, make their homes. The workshop “Middle Eastern Animals: Interdisciplinary Perspectives from Early Modern to Contemporary Times” will focus on this diversity and explore the role non-human animals have played throughout the history of the Middle East.

I'm an Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. I will spend the summer in Istanbul doing research, and I'm looking for a short term furnished flat (entire flat; not a shared room). 

Dates: May 24-August 7 (the start date can be June 1st or soon thereafter)

Conference description:

Dear Colleagues,

I'm reading a late Ottoman work called Medeniyet-i İslâmiyye ve İngiliz Müslümanları by Tevfikîzâde İsmail Tevfik (İstanbul : Matbaa-i Der Nersisyan, 1326).

I have yet to run across any additional information on or writings by Tevfikîzâde İsmail Tevfik. I would appreciate assistance in locating other works by him or simple biographical information so I can place Medeniyet-i İslâmiyye ve İngiliz Müslümanları within his larger body of work and thought.

The conference, entitled "Perspectives on French Colonial and Late Ottoman Cultural History,” is honoring the work of acclaimed architectural historian Zeynep Çelik who will be awarded the
