Mirza.\r\n \r\n Dr. Mirza will be discussing his latest book The Islamic Mary: Maryam Through the Centuries (Fortress Press, 2025), which examines the appearances of Mary, mother of Jesus (Isa) in various Islamic theological and cultural contexts. Mary has been historically revered throughout the Islamic and Christian traditions. In the Qur\u2019an, she is known by the name \u201cMaryam.\u201d The Islamic Mary discusses Maryam's extended history, from her scriptural mentions in the Qur\u2019an and the traditional biographies (S\u012brah) of the Prophet Muhammad, to her appearances in medieval debates on prophecy, to citations of her model virtue in Sufi discussions of piety, to her representations in art and film, to her role in modern interfaith relations, particularly between Muslims and Christians.\r\n \r\n Dr. Mirza will be introduced by Abderrahim Er-ragragi, Ph.D. Candidate in the Department of Middle East Studies and Co-organizer, Rackham Interdisciplinary Islamic Studies Seminar (IISS).\r\n \r\n \r\n Dr. Mirza\u2019s publisher Fortress Press is pleased to offer to talk attendees and colleagues a 30% discount code for buying the book. The code is MIRZA30, valid at FortressPress.com until January 31, 2026.\r\n \r\n Meet the speaker:\r\n \r\n Dr. Younus Y. Mirza is the Founding Director of the Barzinji Institute for Global Virtual Learning at Shenandoah University, Virginia. He defended his dissertation in Arabic and Islamic Studies from Georgetown University, where he is currently a visiting researcher. He has also taught at Millsaps and Allegheny Colleges. His research focuses on the relationship between the Bible and the Qur\u2019an and the shared stories between them. He is the author of the new book The Islamic Mary: Maryam Through the Centuries, co-author of the book The Bible and the Qur\u2019an: Biblical Figures in the Islamic Tradition, and has published in journals such as the Journal of the American Academy of Religion (JAAR), the Journal of Qur\u2019anic Studies (JQS) and Islam Christian-Muslim Relations (ICMR). He has been profiled for his teaching by Interfaith America, and regularly teaches classes on the Qur\u2019an and Bible, and Marriage and Sexuality in Islam. Dr. Mirza was recently Senior Editor of the Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Religion, and hosts the A Common Word and The Islamic Mary podcasts.\r\n \r\n \r\n This event is brought to you by the U-M Global Islamic Studies Center.

She is an Associate Professor in The Writing Seminars at Johns Hopkins University and earned her MFA from The University of Iowa. \n\nHer work is interested in the gap between what happened and how people talk about it\u2014what gets omitted or reframed, what depends on whose version of the story is centered, and how those gaps and omissions operate in the space of an individual life, in a family, and in a country. She is particularly interested in the question of performance: when the gulf between a character\u2019s public self and private self is an act of conscious performance, what makes a character aware that a role or performance is being demanded of them, and how performance can be both an act of resistance and an act of acquiescence, sometimes at the same time. \n\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs, please email kimjulie@umich.edu--we are eager to help ensure this event is inclusive to you.

Her first collection won the PEN American Robert W.

She is an Associate Professor in The Writing Seminars at Johns Hopkins University and earned her MFA from The University of Iowa. \r\n\r\nHer work is interested in the gap between what happened and how people talk about it\u2014what gets omitted or reframed, what depends on whose version of the story is centered, and how those gaps and omissions operate in the space of an individual life, in a family, and in a country. She is particularly interested in the question of performance: when the gulf between a character\u2019s public self and private self is an act of conscious performance, what makes a character aware that a role or performance is being demanded of them, and how performance can be both an act of resistance and an act of acquiescence, sometimes at the same time. \r\n\r\nFor any questions about the event or to share accommodation needs, please email kimjulie@umich.edu--we are eager to help ensure this event is inclusive to you.

In this conversation, author Don James McLaughlin explores how phobia \u2014 first tied to diseases like hydrophobia (rabies) \u2014 became a flexible suffix attached to various fears and social concerns, shaping political, medical, and aesthetic thought from the colonial period through the early 20th century.\n\nMcLaughlin traces the emergence and evolution of phobia as a concept in American culture long before it became established in modern psychology. McLaughlin challenges the idea that phobia only gained prominence with late-19th-century psychiatry, showing instead that the term\u2019s roots extend back to early American literary and medical discourses.", "occurrence_notes":null, "guid":"145160-21896746@events.umich.edu", "permalink":"http:\/\/events.umich.edu\/event\/145160", "building_id":"", "building_name":"Off Campus Location", "building_official_id":null, "campus_maps_id":"1", "campus_maps_link_path":"", "campus_maps_link":"", "room":"", "location_name":"Virtual", "has_livestream":0, "cost":"", "tags":["book discussion"], "website":"https:\/\/myumi.ch\/3QjMV", "links":[ { "type":"registration", "url":"https:\/\/myumi.ch\/3QjMV", "title":"Registration Link" } ], "sponsors":[ { "group_name":"William L.

The institute was established because faculty members believed that research on women, gender, and sexuality required an institutional commitment to thrive. That belief was itself a form of resistance\u2014to disciplinary silos, to marginalization, and to the idea that such scholarship was peripheral. The theme reminds us that resistance is not merely reactive; when rooted in collaboration and sustained through infrastructure, it produces knowledge that reshapes disciplines, institutions, and public life.\n\nThe symposium will open on the evening of April 23 with a keynote address by Dr. Brittney Cooper, Professor of Women\u2019s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and Africana Studies at Rutgers University and founding director of the Race and Gender Equity (RAGE) Lab.
