L.E. (Lucia) Admiraal, PhD

I am a historian working on the cultural and intellectual history of the modern Middle East. I am broadly interested in modern Arab intellectual history, historiography, and Arabic literature. My disseration, lying at the intersection of Middle Eastern Studies and Jewish studies, examined the Arabic Jewish press in the Middle East during the 1930s and '40s and studies the ideas and intellectual networks of its editors and contributors. I welcome PhD proposals on modern Arab intellectual history, historiography and literature (19th and 20th centuries) and the history of the press in the Middle East.
