Acknowledgments
SINCE THE RESEARCH which has resulted in the present publication was first undertaken the list of those to whom I am indebted for advice and assistance has grown quite long. I should like to take this opportunity to extend my thanks to them all. In particular I wish to mention Professor Rudolf Mach, who first suggested that I investigate some aspect of the idea of love in Arabic literature, Professors Muhsin Mahdi and Jaroslav Stetkevych, whose counsel and encouragement over several years was invaluable, and Professor Lois Giffen, who kindly offered a number of suggestions for the improvement of the final version of the manuscript.
I should also like to express my gratitude to the Foreign Area Fellowship Program and the Center for Middle Eastern Studies of the University of Chicago for their support of this study.
