The Academy has received a very generous donation from the great philanthropist H.E. Sheikh Ahmed Zaki Yamani, the former Oil Minister of Saudi Arabia, and a distinguished supporter of Professor Schimmel's life-long work on Islamic literature and culture, whose name from now on will be attached to our Academy's Series of Annemarie Schimmel Memorial Lectures.
