Carina Dreyer’s research interests lie at the intersection of the rational and transmitted sciences, Sufism, and Mongol and Mamluk social and intellectual history. Her master’s thesis Quṭb al‐Dīn al‐Shīrāzī and his political, religious, and intellectual networks traced his life through the complex and everchanging Ilkhanid environments, and his (in)formal networks transcending political, linguistic, and genre boundaries. She intends to continue her research on scholarly networks, discussions, and teaching activities in the postclassical period with a focus on natural philosophy and logic.
