SUMMARY:The End of Prophecy and the Seal of the Prophets
DESCRIPTION:The Mahindra Humanities Center Medieval Studies Seminar present
 s\n\nJack Tannous\nAssociate Professor of History and Hellenic Studies\, D
 epartment of History\, Princeton University\n\nBio: I am interested in the
  cultural history of the eastern Mediterranean\, especially the Middle Eas
 t\, in the Late Antique and early medieval period. My research focuses on 
 the Syriac-speaking Christian communities of the Near East in this period\
 , but I am interested in a number of other\, related areas\, including Eas
 tern Christian Studies more broadly\, Patristics/early Christian studies\,
  Greco-Syriac and Greco-Arabic translation\, Christian-Muslim interactions
 \, sectarianism and identity\, early Islamic history\, the history of the 
 Arabic Bible\, and the Quran. I am also interested in manuscripts and the 
 editing of Syriac and Arabic (especially Christian Arabic) texts.\n\nI am 
 working on a book about the history of Syriac in the late antique and earl
 y medieval period. I have edited and translated the Syriac letters of Geor
 ge\, Bishop of the Arab Tribes (d. 724) as well as the Karshuni life of Th
 eodota of Amid (d. 698) and hope to eventually publish these.\n\nCo-sponso
 r: Standing Committee on Medieval Studies\, Department of Near Eastern Lan
 guages and Civilizations\, the Center for Middle Eastern Studies\, and the
  Center for the Study of World Religions\n\nContact: Sean Gilsdorf
