MEM, founded in 1989, is a professional non-profit association of scholars and organizations interested in the Islamic lands of the Middle East during the medieval period (defined roughly as 500-1500 C.E.). MEM's main objectives are to encourage scholarship on the medieval Middle East and to foster lines of communication among its members.
Al-`Usur al-Wusta publishes brief articles, written in non-technical language, on a variety of subjects, as well as scholar profiles of outstanding scholars of medieval Middle Eastern studies from the Middle East, summaries of current members' research and publications, and reviews of books published in Middle Eastern languages (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Turkish) -- being, in many cases, the only western-language periodical that reviews such publications.
We believe you will find Al-`Usur al-Wusta to be an excellent and inexpensive source of current information on developments in the many fields related to the study of the medieval Middle East and Islamic world, expressed in a non-technical way. It is suitable for undergraduate and graduate students, professional academics, and serious lay readers with an interest in the history, literatures, languages, religions, archaeology, and thought of the medieval Middle East.
