Reza Hosseini Memorial Lecture Series on the Past and Present of the Middle
About this Event

A free hybrid talk with guest speaker William Dalrymple, multi-award-winning author, hosted by Arezou Azad, Director of the Invisible East Programme, and Professor Matthew Weait, Director of the Department for Continuing Education.

Organised by Invisible East, University of Oxford, with the generous support of the European Research Council, the Reza Hosseini Memorial Lecture Series connects individual stories to larger questions on the history and contemporary issues of the Middle East. The series aims to recognise and promote, in particular, microhistories, oral and documentary history, and fieldwork analysis.

The series honours the life and work of Reza Hosseini (1960-2003) who last served as a Humanitarian Officer in Iraq. The series was launched on the 20th anniversary of the attack on the United Nations Headquarters in Baghdad on 19 August 2003 which killed Reza and 21 colleagues.
