SUMMARY:CFP: Association for Iranian Studies 2018 Biennial Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Program Chair has begun assigning panels and papers for adjudication\, a process that should take about two weeks. If you can compete a submission in that time\, the Program Chair should be able to route your submission for adjudication with the understanding that proposals received by 9/15 will have priority for inclusion in the conference program based on available space. This is the same policy as the 2016 conference. We had no issues with space last time and do not anticipate any this time. Members who initiated their propsal submission by the deadline\, but ran into technical problems that had to be resolved after the deadline\, will be held harmless. \nDetails at: https://associationforiranianstudies.org/conferences/2018

SUMMARY:CFP: Law at the Crossroads: Le Droit a la Croisée des Chemins
DESCRIPTION:For thousands of years the place where the City of Toronto is located has been a crossroad where many peoples have met and had fruitful exchanges. According to some Indigenous knowledge keepers\, the word “Toronto” comes from the Wendat term for a fishing weir constructed of sticks standing in the water. Lake and river fishing has been an important activity for the area’s many Indigenous peoples\, including Huron-Wendat\, Haudenosaunee\, Mississauga and Chippewa. The Indigenous knowledge frameworks and laws of the peoples of this area encourage a multilayered understanding of an item such as a fishing weir in terms of its natural\, sacred\, practical and social meanings. \nThe area continues to be home to many Indigenous people from all over Canada and beyond\, but Toronto has also been shaped by immigration flows from many parts of the world\, with about half of its current residents being born outside of Canada. \nThe Law and Society Association and the Canadian Law and Society Association hope that our joint meeting in Toronto will be creative and fruitful\, in keeping with the traditional use of this land as a gathering place\, and that visitors to the area will take the opportunity to make new connections not only with one another but also with diverse local communities.\nThis year’s Program Committee is Chair is Mariana Valverde\, University of Toronto. \nWe invite the submission of Individual Papers and/or Session proposals. Papers and panels need not be centered on the conference theme. Proposals on any law and society topic are welcome.\nYou will find the Call at www.lawandsociety.org/Toronto2018/toronto2018.html \nIn the Call you will find more information about the theme\, submission instructions\, and more. We will be adding more meeting information as time progresses. \nThe deadline for proposal submission is October 18\, 2017. \nRegistration will begin in early February\, 2018.

SUMMARY:ILSP LUNCH TALK :: RESURRECTING THE ANCIENT JURISTS IN PRINT
DESCRIPTION:Ahmed El Shamsy\, Visiting Fellow\, ILSP: SHARIAsource\, Harvard Law School\nThe publication of al-Shāfiʿī’s (d. 204/820) multivolume magnum opus\, al-Umm\, in 1903-7 opened a window into early Islamic legal thought and provided the basis for all subsequent historiography of Islamic law. However\, the work’s publication was anything but inevitable: though it is today considered a seminal text\, in the late nineteenth century the Umm\, like the writings of most other early jurists\, languished in obscurity. Examining how and why the Umm was published thus offers surprising insights into the state of Islamic legal literature in the early twentieth century and its relationship to its long history.

SUMMARY:Panel on Optical Character Recognition
DESCRIPTION:Today’s scholars expect Optical Character Recognition (OCR) of texts in library collections.   Despite expectations that all texts are equally discoverable\, we know that countless handwritten manuscripts and documents in non-Roman fonts have neither been OCR’ed nor transcribed.   Three esteemed Harvard colleagues will discuss OCR projects that promise to open up vast quantities of knowledge to digital researchers. \n\nSharon Tai\, Deputy Editor at SHARIAsource will talk about Arabic OCR.\nDonald Sturgeon\, a postdoctoral fellow at the Fairbank Center of Chinese Studies\, will tell us about his work with Chinese texts.\nAmy Benson\, Librarian/Archivist for Digital Projects at Schlesinger Library\, will share how they aim to make handwriting searchable.\n\nJoin us for what is sure to be an informative discussion as our panelists share both the successes and challenges of their work. \n

SUMMARY:HLS Bicentennial Panel: God on Mass Ave.
DESCRIPTION:Apart from the constant of student prayer before exams\, the study of religion and law has changed and evolved over the years at the law school. On one hand\, faculty and alumni on the courts have long engaged the topic of church and state in U.S. constitutional law\, making important contributions to doctrine and practice. On the other\, faculty have delved deeply into world religions and their legal traditions\, especially those of Islam\, Christianity\, and Hinduism\, as well as Judaism\, the ancestral (and sometimes vestigial) faith of many faculty in the second half of the 20th century. This panel will explore both sides of this engagement with religion and law and provide insight into divine and domestic law at HLS\, then and now. \nSpeakers: \nNoah Feldman\, Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law\, Harvard Law School \nIntisar Rabb\, Professor of Law\, Harvard Law School \nCharles Donahue\, Paul A. Freund Professor of Law\, Harvard Law School

SUMMARY:ILSP Lunch Talk: A History Without Gaps: Legal Maxims and the Evolution of Islamic Law
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Mariam Sheibani\, PhD Candidate\, University of Chicago  \nThe emergence and functions of legal maxims in Islamic law remains an understudied field in Islamic legal history. Scholars have noted early interest in maxims in the tenth and eleventh centuries\, followed by a period of dormancy prior to the eruption of maxim treatises in the fourteenth century. This has led some scholars to speak of a period of stagnation of the genre during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. I closely study the terminological and conceptual evolution of maxims in Shāfiʿī legal literature from the founding of the school in the ninth century to the emergence of maxim treatises in the fourteenth century. Examining this evolution not only provides a history of maxims without gaps\, but it also offers unexpected insights about the significant role of maxims in negotiating jurists’ competing visions of the law\, in the consolidation of the legal schools and in legal practice inside and outside the courts.
