Azazeel : Historiographic Metafiction in the Contemporary Arabic Historical Novel)*(
Alternative Histories in Youssef Ziedan's Azazeel : Historiographic Metafiction in the Contemporary Arabic Historical Novel)*( Dr. Hala Mohamed Kamel Amin Assistant Professor - Department of English Faculty of Al-Alsun – Beni Suef University Abstract Drawing on Linda Hutcheon's theory, this article reads Azazeel as a historiographic metafiction. It argues that the novel not only denounces the so-called religious, or religiously-motivated, violence but also has an additional epistemological import, articulated in the novel's historiographic metafictional narrative which, in accordance with Hutcheon's theory, provides an alternative history that foregrounds the 'narrativity' of historical narratives and represents the past from a 'marginal' perspective to question the absolute authority of metanarratives, undermine monolithic notions of knowledge, and develop a balanced production and dissemination of knowledge. The article examines the novel's use of historiographic metafictional techniques which reflect its thematic content and its espousal of the postmodern ideology of diversity and pluralism. The article demonstrates that, without denying its heritage, Azazeel engages with the global postmodern condition, locates the Arabic historical novel within the wider context of world historical fiction, and opens up new avenues for research on historiographic metafiction. )*( Bulletin of the Faculty of Arts Volume 81 Issue 2 January 2021 74 Bulletin of the Faculty of Arts Volume 81 Issue 2 January 2021 السرديات التاريخية البديلة في رواية "عزازيل" للكاتب يوسف زيدان: ما وراء القص التاريخي في الرواية التاريخية العربية المعاصرة د/ هالة محمد كامل أمين مدرس- قسم اللغة اﻻنجليزية- كلية اﻷلسن- جامعة بنى سويف الملخص : تقدم المقالة قارءة في ضوء نظريات ليندا هتشون لرواية عزازيل للكاتب يوسف زيدان كمثال من اﻷدب العربي لما وارء القص التاريخي. -

Literary Networks and the Making of Egypt's Nineties Generation By
Writing in Cairo: Literary Networks and the Making of Egypt’s Nineties Generation by Nancy Spleth Linthicum A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Near Eastern Studies) in the University of Michigan 2019 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Carol Bardenstein, Chair Associate Professor Samer Ali Professor Anton Shammas Associate Professor Megan Sweeney Nancy Spleth Linthicum [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0001-9782-0133 © Nancy Spleth Linthicum 2019 Dedication Writing in Cairo is dedicated to my parents, Dorothy and Tom Linthicum, with much love and gratitude for their unwavering encouragement and support. ii Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my committee for their invaluable advice and insights and for sticking with me throughout the circuitous journey that resulted in this dissertation. It would not have been possible without my chair, Carol Bardenstein, who helped shape the project from its inception. I am particularly grateful for her guidance and encouragement to pursue ideas that others may have found too far afield for a “literature” dissertation, while making sure I did not lose sight of the texts themselves. Anton Shammas, throughout my graduate career, pushed me to new ways of thinking that I could not have reached on my own. Coming from outside the field of Arabic literature, Megan Sweeney provided incisive feedback that ensured I spoke to a broader audience and helped me better frame and articulate my arguments. Samer Ali’s ongoing support and feedback, even before coming to the University of Michigan (UM), likewise was instrumental in bringing this dissertation to fruition. -
The American University in Cairo Press Centennial Catalog
The American University in Cairo Press Centennial Catalog New Books 2019 Cover: See The American University in Cairo: 100 Years, 100 Stories, pages 4 and 5 Letter from the Director It gives me great pleasure to join in marking the hundredth anniversary of the founding of our parent institution, the American University in Cairo, with the publication of this celebratory catalog of AUC Press books. Spanning two publication seasons, it features all titles published or forthcoming in 2019 and early 2020, not least The American Uni- versity in Cairo: 100 Years, 100 Stories by Andrew Humphreys (page 4). This engaging and attractive volume is a fitting tribute to AUC’s legacy and a valuable documentation of the people, history, and events that have helped shape the university. Suitably, this catalog also presents James Steele’s survey of the works and architectural philosophy of the principal architect of the Community Design Collaborative, the firm which led the design and construction of AUC’s New Cairo campus, Abdelhalim Ibrahim Abdel- halim: An Architecture of Collective Memory (page 3). Meanwhile Aidan Dodson builds on the success of Sethy I: King of Egypt, His Life and Afterlife (page 16) to bring us the next title in the AUC Press book series on key figures in ancient Egyptian history,Rameses III, King of Egypt, His Life and Afterlife (page 17). This year’s offerings of ancient Egypt titles also include Reg Clark’s Securing Eternity: Ancient Egyptian Tomb Security from Prehistory to the Pyramids (page 19), a study of the evolution of this aspect of tomb architecture over more than two millennia; and a wide-ranging collected volume on non- royal elite autobiographical texts and inscriptions, Living Forever: Self-Presentation in Ancient Egypt (page 19), edited by Hussein Bassir. -

Thesis Summary Aston University The Role of Social Agents in the Translation into English of the Novels of Naguib Mahfouz Linda Ahed Alkhawaja Doctor of Philosophy (by Research) April, 2014 This research investigates the field of translation in an Egyptain context around the work of the Egyptian writer and Nobel Laureate Naguib Mahfouz by adopting Pierre Bourdieu’s sociological framework. Bourdieu’s framework is used to examine the relationship between the field of cultural production and its social agents. The thesis includes investigation in two areas: first, the role of social agents in structuring and restructuring the field of translation, taking Mahfouz’s works as a case study; their role in the production and reception of translations and their practices in the field; and second, the way the field, with its political and socio-cultural factors, has influenced translators’ behaviour and structured their practices. -
