"The study of literature becomes comparative when it breaks over the walls of linguistic ignorance, of provincial prejudice and sectional animosity, merging national into international expressions of living endeavor. Its duty is to gather, sort, grade and combine the literature of all languages, so as to discover and formulate its purport, meaning, and trend, summing up its differences, similarities and significance for the guidance of the lives of men and women who wish to live in the light of their humanity, rather than in that of their unavoidable provincial affiliations" (Guthrie, Kenneth Sylvan. The Spiritual Message of Literature: A Manual of Comparative Literature with Topical Outlines and Lists of Useful Books for School, College, and Private Use. Brooklyn: Comparative Literature Press, 1913. i.) "The second principle of comparative cultural studies is the theoretical as well as methodological postulate to move and to dialogue between cultures, languages, literatures, and disciplines. This is a crucial aspect of the framework, the approach as a whole, and its methodology. In other words, attention to other cultures—that is, the comparative perspective—is a basic and founding element and factor of the framework. The claim of emotional and intellectual primacy and subsequent institutional power of national cultures is untenable in this perspective. In turn, the built-in notions of exclusion and self-referentiality of single culture study and their result of rigidly defined disci- plinary boundaries are notions against which comparative cultural studies offers an alternative as well as a parallel field of study. This inclusion extends to all Other, all marginal, minority, border, and peripheral and it encompasses both form and substance. However, attention must be paid of the 'how' of any inclusionary approach, attestation, methodology, and ideology so as not to repeat the mistakes of Eurocentrism and 'universalization' from a 'superior' Eurocentric point of view. Dialogue is the only solution" (Tötösy de Zepetnek, Steven. "From Comparative Literature Today toward Comparative Cultural Studies."

    THE MARGIN IN THE SPEECH OF MAGIC REALISM PJAEE, 18(8) (2021) THE MARGIN IN THE SPEECH OF MAGIC REALISM Bashir Thabet Mohammed Al-Anzi1, Prof. Dr. Latif Mahmoud Mohamed Al Ghurairy 1,2College of Education for Human Sciences – University of Anbar. Bashir Thabet Mohammed Al-Anzi1, Prof. Dr. Latif Mahmoud Mohamed Al Ghurairy, The Margin In The Speech Of Magic Realism, Palarch’s Journal Of Archaeology Of Egypt/Egyptology 18(8), 4621-4631. ISSN 1567-214x. Abstract The writer and poet depend on a certain rule on which he is based to edit his creative texts with the available tools to help him in that production. And as the world around us is in a state of change which made the writer keep pace with those changes to extend to literature and showing each transition adopting a thought and vision of its own, which resulted in the idea of the center and the margin. Everything that was excluded by a particular doctrine is embraced by another one. It is necessary that some things will be selected and others will be neglected. This study dealt with the issue of marginal and accidental in the discourse of literature, after the writer felt the need to pay attention to everything that is rejected in the custom of previous literary cultures and attention to the trivial and neglected elements. The magical realism embraces what is magical, fantastical and mythical which has become the basic rule of this literary current . Introduction Magical realism is one of the terms that raise a great deal of controversy at the literary and artistic level.

Dr . Hazem Tarish Hatem Imam Al-Kazim "peace be upon him" University College of Islamic Sciences Asst. prof. Dr . Hazem Tarish Hatem: Argumentation Reference In Nahj Al-Balaghah An Exploratory Reading Of Human Values In Light Of Natural Reasoning-- Palarch’s Journal Of Archaeology Of Egypt/Egyptology 17(6), 1-14. ISSN 1567-214x Keywords (Reference, Argumentation, Natural Reasoning) ABSTRACT The research seeks to reveal the humanity of mankind in Alawite discourse from the angle of the two sides of the discourse, because it is the Alawite speech, an evaluative value speech. And the angle of view creates a conflict of values. This contradiction generated a value debate, which revealed the cognitive system of the two parties to the discourse. This attraction in contradictory values, is one of the forms of argumentation. As well as the form of the argumentation in the one self, which formed another self. This disconnect was due to the change of attitudes that require the stability of values with the change of attitudes. The declared principles may not find a place for them in application because the principles are not based on cognitive constants that took their place in the soul. Rather, worldly benefits are wanted, and this is what evoked a conflict in the one-self. Using natural reasoning logic as a cognitive path, to explore the values that formed the essence of the discourse in Nahj al-Balaghah.

  • Negotiating the City in Modern Iraqi Poetry
    www.galaxyimrj.com Galaxy: International Multidisciplinary Research journal ISSN 2278-9529 Negotiating the City in Modern Iraqi Poetry Saddik Mohamed Professor and Chair of the English Literature Department UAE University Introduction In “The Crisis of Language”, Richard Sheppard discusses the attitude of modernist poets toward the city. He argues: Many of the major modernist poets had come into headlong conflict with the antipathetic institutions of the rising industrial city. This conflict is seen in “The Waste Land”, where Eliot’s New England sensibility expresses its alienation from the modern mass city” (Sheppard 2987: 330). Like Eliot , many Arab poets have expressed their hostility toward Arab cities in general associating them with alienation, poverty, oppression and political corruption. Salma Jayyusi in Trends and Movements in Modern Arabic Poetry points out that although “The Waste Land” is not a poem of despair it “stresses the living death of the crowd in the unreal city (Jayyusi 1977: 724). Explicitly, many Arab poets imitate or even copy Eliot’s vision of the modern city ignoring the differences between the Euro-American metropolis and the Arab cities. Others have approached the city motif from different perspectives according to their political ideologies and exilic experiences. The city analogy in Arabic literature , has been part and parcel of the modernist tradition ever since Badr Shaker Al-Sayyab in “Jaikur and the City” poured out his invective against the city in the fifties, describing its streets as “coil of mud " which " bite into my heart,” and moaning : “my right hand: no claw to fight with on the streets of the city, no grip to raise up life from the clay”( Cited in Gohar 1998: 49 ).

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This is a study of textual relations in the Qur’an which explores the possibility of looking differently at the relations holding between the variety of topics that are usually encountered in the long Qur’anic suras. It adopts principles from linguistic and pragmatic theory, and attempts to explain textual relations in accordance with those principles. The main argument of the thesis is that the study of textual relations may be based on a search not necessarily for unity of theme, but rather for whatever types of relations do exist, how they work, and what linguistic tools can be used in directing the reader towards understanding them. The study is divided into an introduction and five chapters.

  • Contextual Aspects of Style and Translation: with Particular Reference to English-Arabic Translation

O. Box 82, Department of English, Omar Al-Mukhtar University, Derna, Libya. Tel: 218-91-836-0743.

This is simply because translation as a practice existed long before translation as a theoretical discipline. Most translators with no doubt wish to see their role in such a positive way: “opening a window” for TT readers, in order to illuminate for them an unfamiliar culture. In today’s translation circles, the translations accepted by mainstream translation norms more often than not share such features as fluency, smoothness and transparency. The target text is free of the slightest trace of translation and reads as if it had been written by the original author in the target language. The differences, including the strangeness, and otherness, are replaced by something familiar to the target reader. This paper, is basically devoted to shedding light on the impact of Abu Deeb’s style, in translating Orientalism, and how Abu Deeb’s style effect his translation.

  • The American University in Cairo Press Is the Largest English-Language Publisher in the Middle East
    The American The American University University in Cairo in Cairo Press Press The American University in Cairo Press is the largest English-language publisher in the Middle East. Founded in 1960, the Press plays a vital role in the cultural and academic dialog between the Arab world and the West. From Arabic fiction in translation through Egyptology to scholarly and general works on all aspects of modern Egypt and its neighbors, including the recent Arab uprisings, the publications of the AUC Press remain a canon of fresh and relevant publishing from the region. The American University in Cairo Press Cairo • New York Visit us at www.aucpress.com New Books Fall 2013 Letter from the Director Many books have been written about Gamal Abdel Nasser, a giant of twen - tieth-century world politics, but none as intimate as Nasser: My Husband (page 2), in which his wife Tahia tells the story—and shares the pictures—of their marriage, their home, their children, and the man who challenged the west and changed the face of Egypt. Now since 2011 Egypt and the Middle East have been transformed again, and in the fully updated new edition of his bestselling book Life as Politics (page 40), Asef Bayat looks at how popular protest in the region, contrary to expectation, can be a real agent for change. Our new translations of Arabic fiction this season include the winner of last year’s Naguib Mahfouz Medal for Literature, House of the Wolf by Ezzat El Kamhawi (page 28); an epic novel of exile from Palestine by renowned Egyptian writer Radwa Ashour, The Woman from Tantoura (page 24); and Rain over Baghdad (page 23), a novel of love and disappearance in the dark days of Saddam’s Iraq by Egyptian writer Hala El Badry.

The research plan was based on an introduction, an introduction and two top- ics. The frst topic: the difference in the appointment of the teacher in the context of verbal (script).
