Muhsin Jassim al-Musawi Professor Muhsin al-Musawi is an internationally renowned scholar and literary critic who joined The American University of Sharjah, and then Columbia University, with over 20 years' experience teaching at a number of institutions in the Middle East. Described by The Chronicle of Higher Education as "one of the Arab world's leading literary critics," al-Musawi's teaching and research interests span several periods and genres. He is the author of 24 books (including four novels) and over 60 scholarly articles. His books include: Scheherazade in England (1981), The Society of One Thousand and One Nights (2000), and Anglo-Orient: Easterners in Textual Camps (2000). His most recent book, The Postcolonial Arabic Novel: Debating Ambivalence (Brill, 2003), is the first study of its kind to tackle the postcolonial in Arabic fiction. His forthcoming book Arabic Poetry: Trajectories of Tradition and Modernity (Routledge) represents the most comprehensive treatment of this topic to date. Al-Musawi is the recipient of numerous honors and awards including the prestigious Owais Award in Literary Criticism (2002). He has been a member of the editorial board of the Journal of Arabic Literature since 1999.
