alusur-6848	Pinckney Stetkevych, Suzanne 	Remarks by the Recipient of the 2017 MEM Lifetime Achievement Award Given at the Annual Meeting of Middle East Medievalists 	2018	6	.pdf	application/pdf	2919	83	45	For me, that was Arabic poetry, clearly text-based and grounded in a variety of Islamic and Middle East Studies fields, but now engaging as well a wide range of exhilarating ideas, from linguistics to literary theory, from structuralism to ritual theory, that held the promise of bringing classical Arabic poetry out of the Orientalist closet and engaging and integrating it into a broader humanistic enterprise.
