Presentation at MESA Annual Meeting

I thank Jeffrey Reger and his colleagues from the Middle East Studies Association (MESA) very much for accepting a submission of mine for their Annual Meeting. On Thursday, November 14, 2024, I am thrilled to present about “Middle Eastern Cultures, Islam and Extraterrestrial Life.” My presentation will be part of session VII-16 “Nature and the Non-human in Muslim Thought.” I thank Richard McGregor of Vanderbilt University for chairing our panel. It is my honor to speak after the following great scholars: Munia Hweidi of Sophia University, Jens Schmitt of the University of Würzburg, Aysenur Cam of Princeton University and Mustafa Diwan of Harvard Divinity School.
