Yale University
A scholar and translator of classical and medieval Arabic literature, Yale's Shawkat Toorawa's area of inquiry also includes modern poetry and science fiction film and literature - a range of interests reflected in his capacious list of summer reading recommendations.
Toorawa is the Brand Blanshard Professor of Near Eastern Languages & Civilizations and professor of comparative literature in Yale's Faculty of Arts and Sciences; he is also the host of "The dr. T projecT," a weekly campus gathering at which he shares "three things worth knowing."
