  • Karima LAACHIR University of London
    25 Beyond Language Determinism: Multilingual Literary Traditions in Morocco Karima LAACHIR University of London Linguistic and cultural diversity in the Maghreb have not been explored adequately in the field of literary and cultural studies. This paper raises the problematic separation of the Moroccan novel written in Arabic and French in literary and critical studies. It provides a critique of the way Moroccan novels in French have been excluded from the literary field of Arabic literature despite their strong affiliation with the cultural history of Arabic literature. In the field of Francophone studies, the focus on Moroccan novel in French has completely excluded Moroccan novels in Arabic which has resulted in a shallow conception of the transmitted cultural heritage and in obscuring the cultural histories from which these texts emerge. It also obscures the “cohabitation” of French with other languages in the region (Dobie 2003: 33). This paper argues against these dominant reading practices that are based on linguistic determinism as they have contributed to the marginalisation of Moroccan literary traditions within dominant literary systems such as the Francophone/French or Arabic traditions and therefore, have obscured the cultural, linguistic and historical entanglement of these multilingual literary traditions. Morocco’s complex multilingual scene predated French and Spanish colonialism (1912- 1956) as languages such as Darija or spoken Moroccan Arabic, Fusha or standard Arabic and various spoken dialects of Amazigh, as well as Judeo-Arabic and Judeo-Spanish shaped the oral and written cultures of Morocco. The arrival of French and Spanish languages further complicated the picture, particularly as the French pursued a colonial policy of imposing French as the sole language of education and administration.

  • Chronicles of Disappearance: the Novel of Investigation in the Arab World, 1975-1985
    Chronicles of Disappearance: The Novel of Investigation in the Arab World, 1975-1985 By Emily Lucille Drumsta A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Margaret Larkin, Chair Professor Chana Kronfeld Professor Karl Britto Professor Stefania Pandolfo Summer 2016 © 2016 Emily Lucille Drumsta All Rights Reserved Abstract Chronicles of Disappearance: The Novel of Investigation in the Arab World, 1975-1985 by Emily Lucille Drumsta Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature University of California, Berkeley Professor Margaret Larkin, Chair This dissertation identifies investigation as an ironic narrative practice through which Arab authors from a range of national contexts interrogate certain forms of political language, contest the premises of historiography, and reconsider the figure of the author during periods of historical upheaval. Most critical accounts of twentieth-century Arabic narrative identify the late 1960s as a crucial turning point for modernist experimentation, pointing particularly to how the defeat of the Arab Forces in the 1967 June War generated a self-questioning “new sensibility” in Arabic fiction. Yet few have articulated how these intellectual, spiritual, and political transformations manifested themselves on the more concrete level of literary form. I argue that the investigative plot allows the authors I consider to distance themselves from the political and literary languages they depict as rife with “pulverized,” “meaningless,” “worn out,” or “featureless” words. Faced with the task of distilling meaning from losses both physical and metaphysical, occasioned by the traumas of war, exile, colonialism, and state violence, these authors use investigation to piece together new narrative forms from the debris of poetry, the tradition’s privileged mode of historical reckoning.

The study compares the translation with the original text to highlight the differences in the stylistic choices of vocabulary and grammatical categories between Arabic and English. Studying literary works from linguistic orientation deepens the comprehension of literature. Stylistic analysis of the two selected texts not only helps the reader to comprehend more fully but also contributes to more understanding of the two systems of both languages.

  • Nvitality and Dynamismo Déjeux Have Both Suggested in Their Own Writings
    Anti-colonial literature is not necessarily ‘combat literature’ as Fanon and nVitality and Dynamismo Déjeux have both suggested in their own writings. While it is often com- bative, there is also anti-colonial literature that emphasizes the human and the humane rather than the oppositional and contentious; it cannot be fair to label all anti-colonial literature as combative, even if one were to expand the definition of ‘combat’ to include peaceful struggles against oppression or dehumanization. This book suggests that the relationship between the West and the rest of the world has been imagined as a relationship of Self (the West) to Other (the rest of the world), ordered and bordered geographically by the whims of Europeans and creating a Center-Periphery paradigm. These invented boundaries of humanity serve to separate geographical sites, but more, they serve to enclose the Empire and exoticize other cultures. Boundaries are often spatial, but more often, they are related to relationships and co- Stewart Devin J. Elbousty, M. Youness Edited by Kirstin Ruth Bratt, lonialization.

  • 'Reading Together' Moroccan Novels in Arabic and French Karima Laachir
    1 This is the accepted version of the article ‘The aesthetics and politics of ‘reading together’ Moroccan novels in Arabic and French’ published by Taylor and Francis in the Journal of North African Studies, 21 (1) pp.22- 36. Published version available at: 10.1080/13629387.2015.1084098 Accepted Version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/22156/ The Aesthetics and Politics of ‘Reading Together’ Moroccan Novels in Arabic and French Karima Laachir (SOAS, University of London) (email: [email protected]) Abstract This paper attempts to break down the common practices of reading multilingual Moroccan novels, particularly Moroccan postcolonial novels in Arabic and French. I argue that dominant reading practices are based on binary oppositions marked by a reductionist understanding of language and cultural politics in Morocco. They place the Moroccan novel in Arabic and French in independent traditions with the presupposition that they have no impact on each other, thereby reifying each tradition. They also ignore the similar historical, social and cultural context from which they novels emerge, and tend to reinforce the marginalization of the Moroccan novel within hegemonic single language literary systems such as the Francophone or Arabic literary traditions. I advocate ‘reading together’ –or an entangled comparative reading of— postcolonial Moroccan novels in Arabic and French; a reading that privileges the specificity of the literary traditions in Morocco rather than language categorisation, and that considers their

  • Ethnography of the Fez Medina (Morocco) September 2013

Furthermore, words alone are hardly adequate to fully express my gratitude for the kindness and guidance each and every one awarded me during these four years of joy, satisfaction, and difficulties between Fez and Rabat in Morocco, Brussels in Belgium, Halle in Germany, as well as the many cities which hosted conferences and other academic events I took part in. I must begin this list of acknowledgments by thanking the financial support I received from the Fonds National de la Recherche Scientifique (FNRS) in Belgium, without which any research would have been impossible in the first place. Deep and sincere thanks go to those who, in one way or another, made my research possible: Jawad Yousfi and his family for their warm welcome in their house and for the many discussions and debates we had, Abdelhay Mezzour for his support and help with the Ziyarates
