In the decades after its invention in 1839, photography was inextricably linked to the Middle East. Introduced as a crucial tool for Egyptologists and Orientalists who needed to document their archaeological findings, the photograph was easier and faster to produce in intense Middle Eastern light—making the region one of the original sites for the practice of photography. A pioneering study of this intertwined history, Camera Orientalis traces the Middle East’s influences on photography’s evolution, as well as photography’s effect on Europe’s view of “the Orient.” Considering a range of Western and Middle Eastern archival material from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Ali Behdad offers a rich account of how photography transformed Europe’s distinctly Orientalist vision into what seemed objective fact, a transformation that proved central to the project of European colonialism. At the same time, Orientalism was useful for photographers from both regions, as it gave them a set of conventions by which to frame exotic Middle Eastern cultures for Western audiences. Behdad also shows how Middle Eastern audiences embraced photography as a way to foreground status and patriarchal values while also exoticizing other social classes. An important examination of previously overlooked European and Middle Eastern photographers and studios, Camera Orientalis demonstrates that, far from being a one-sided European development, Orientalist photography was the product of rich cultural contact between the East and the West.  

The Structure and Life-history of the Cockroach (Periplaneta orientalis) by L. C. Miall is a pioneering work that delves deep into the anatomy, physiology, and behavioral patterns of one of the most resilient insects on the planet. Miall, an eminent biologist, meticulously examines the cockroach's biological structure, offering detailed illustrations that enhance understanding. The book is not only a scientific exploration but also an engaging narrative that showcases Miall's keen observations and insights into the life cycle of the cockroach. From its embryonic development to its adult behaviors, Miall presents a comprehensive study that highlights the adaptability and survival mechanisms of this species. The text serves as both an educational resource for students of entomology and an intriguing read for anyone interested in the complexities of insect life. Miall's work remains a significant contribution to entomological literature, blending rigorous scientific inquiry with a passion for the natural world.

The decision to translate these early monastic rules was made at the first 1979-80 meeting of the Medieval Group at Saint John's University during the sesquimillennial celebration of the birth of Saint Benedict of Nursia. It was felt that making these rules available in English could be valuable for a general , nonspecialist audience wishing to become familiar with the tradition that produced the rule of St. Benedict. These translations are the result of that resolution.

The biblical scholar, historian, and Jewish thinker Yehezkel Kaufmann (1889-1963) is best known for two magisterial works: a two-volume interpretation of Jewish history and a four-volume study of biblical religion. Toledot in particular is the most monumental achievement of modern Jewish biblical scholarship. No other figure, not even Martin Buber, has had such a profound influence on the work of Jewish scholars of the Bible. The volume provides a comprehensive and multi-faceted account of Kaufmann's work, through which Anglophone readers, students and scholars alike, can explore the hitherto unrecognized significance and profundity of Kaufmann's legacy.
