Journal of Levantine Studies - Now Available Online!
www.levantine-journal.org<http://www.levantine-journal.org> We are happy to announce that the new issue of the Journal of Levantine Studies (JLS) is now available online at www.levantine-journal.org. JLS is published biannually both in print and online and subscriptions are available for private and institutional subscribers. JLS is a peer-reviewed journal published by the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute. The journal is dedicated to the critical study of the social, political and cultural settings which, in various periods of history, have been known as the Levant. As a new platform for theoretical and empirical scholarship, JLS aims to reclaim the notion of the Levant as a historical and political concept and as a category of identity and classification.
