    María Rosa Menocal is the Director of the Whitney Humanities Center and Sterling Professor of the Humanities at Yale University, where she has taught in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese since 1985. Her many books on Spanish literature and culture include "The Ornament of the World: How Muslims, Christians, and Jews Created a Culture of Tolerance in Medieval Spain" (2002), which has since been translated into eleven languages. In the spring of 2007 an international conference in Toronto commemorated the twentieth anniversary of her volume "The Arabic Role in Medieval Literary History: A Forgotten Heritage" (1987) and its impact on the field of medieval studies. Her most recent book is a broad-ranging and richly illustrated collaborative project, written with art historian Jerrilynn Dodds and Arabist Abigail Krasner Balbale, on Castilian as the shared culture of the three monotheistic traditions in all art forms.
