Summary/Abstract: This study offers a brief presentation of the life and academic career of Irfan Arif Shahîd, professor of Byzantine studies at Georgetown University and Honorary Affiliate Fellow of Dumbarton Oaks. Shahîd’s scholarly interests gravitated around the history of the relations between Byzantium and the Arabs before the era of the Prophet Muhammad, and also on the entangled religious and cultural histories of the Arab Christians. This study also provides a translation of Shahîd’s study on the Arab Christianity in Byzantine Palestine, published in ARAM, 15 (2003), along with the complete list of scientific publications of the American bizantinist.
