The staff of MPCD mourns the loss of their project partner Prof. Dr. Shaul Shaked (Hebrew University Jerusalem), who passed away on October 27, 2021. Shaul Shaked was an Emeritus Professor at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, specializing in Iranian Studies, Religious Studies, Aramaic, and conducting research on magic in Late Antiquity, among other topics. He was a member of the Israel Academy of Arts and Sciences and one of the world's most respected scholars in his field. With his extensive preliminary work, he laid the foundation for the Dictionary of Middle Persian. We will honor his memory in the project.
