Eye image1 Some very exciting publicity news for the Library of Arabic Literature this week: the Times Literary Supplement, which ran a great review of Geert Jan van Gelder’s Classical Arabic Literature back in June, has now published an article by Lydia Wilson about the Library of Arabic Literature enterprise as a whole—our broader aims for the series, the challenges of editing and translating, and the need for a series such as this to make these texts more accessible in English.

If you’re a TLS subscriber, you can find the full review on their website. For everyone else, I’ve attached a PDF version here: “More and better: In the Library of Arabic Literature”. Please read the whole thing!
