Arabic Literature (In English) Blog
Arabic Literature (in English) blog AZ Abushady: Revolutionary Egyptian Poet, Feminist, Beekeeper, and More By M. Lynx Qualey on August 26, 2013 Artist and writer Joy Garnett (@joygarnett) is working on a book about her grandfather, Ahmed Zaki Abushady, the Egyptian poet and bee scientist. She answered a few questions about AZ Abushady, his work, and her book project: ArabLit: When did you first become interested in your grandfather’s life and work (in a serious way)? What role did family stories play? Can you describe your current book-project and what it will encompass? Joy Garnett: The book is a family memoir and an adventure story – a love story – that focuses on Abushady’s life, his work as a poet and bee scientist, and his premature death in relative obscurity in the US. It’s not a biography in the conventional sense. I have an inside story to offer, told through family members and Abushady’s own voice. My discovery of an archive containing his letters and decades of correspondence was a pivotal moment. They reveal how his personal story is entangled with political and cultural conflicts played out from 1922 to 1946 in Egypt. Central to the story is the point of view of my aunt Safeya, the source of so much of this material. She is Abushady’s oldest daughter and the last living family link to that time. So, I am telling an idiosyncratic story partly through her, and in a way that I think AZ Abushady as a young man. 1909. anyone will relate to, whether or not they’re interested in Egypt. -

Modern Arab Historians and World History1
MODERN ARAB HISTORIANS AND WORLD HISTORY 1) The study of modern Arab historiography has hardly begun. Orien- talists in Europe and America, as well as Arab historians, until very recently were interested only in medieval Islam and in the classical history of the Arabs. This is why works on Muslim and Arab historio- graphy like those of Wiistenfeld, Margoliouth, and Rosenthal have concerned themselves only with classical Arab historians until the end of the Mamlfik period in the early sixteenth century. Increasing interest in the modem history of the Arabs, however, is beginning to emphasize the necessity of studying the modern historians and historical literature of the Arab world in the period of Ottoman rule and in the post-war period after 1920. There is not yet one com- prehensive work on the subject, but one Arab author at least, Professor Jam51 al-Din Shayyal, has written a short book on “History and Historians in Egypt in the Nineteenth Century” (Cairo, 1958). 2 The department of Arab Studies at the American University of Beirut devoted its ninth annual conference (18-22May, 1959) to the study of Arab historiography in the last one hundred years, but the papers presented were almost exclusively centered on modern historical litera- ture relating to various periods of classical Arab history. Not one paper was read on the work of Arab historians on modern Arab history. General or special works on the history of Arabic literature, like those of C. Brockelmann, Jurji Zaydan and Louis Cheikho, have dealt to some extent with modern Arabic historical literature. -
Orisa-Shakespeare: a Study of Shakespeare Adaptations Inspired by the Yoruba Tradition
Orisa-Shakespeare: A study of Shakespeare Adaptations Inspired by the Yoruba Tradition By Olalekan Is’haq Balogun (PhD with creative component) A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theatre Victoria University of Wellington (2017) Abstract This thesis combines creative practice with critical analysis to intervene in the field of post-colonial Shakespeare where, for over a generation, the process of adaptation has been presented as one of the main strategies by which Shakespeare’s ambiguous legacy in successor cultures can be both confronted and manipulated. Scholars often use the term “writing back” to designate a set of adaptations which challenge the cultural capital that Shakespeare privileges. By linking Yoruba spirituality in its political and cultural terms to the wider field of the relation between Africa, African writers and theatre makers and Shakespeare, the thesis proposes a new sub-field or genre of adaptations, “Orisa-Shakespeare,” rooted in Yoruba traditions. The thesis argues that, written in Nigeria and the Yoruba global diaspora, this set of adaptations are not necessarily challenging the Shakespeare canon but addressing their own societies, thus “writing forward.” The thesis examines the cultural and political significance of this bourgeoning body of adaptations of Shakespeare through the lens of Yoruba epistemology and its aesthetic principles. The thesis is broadly divided into two parts: an exegesis of selected adaptations of Shakespeare as case studies of post-colonial works that reflect and integrate Yoruba creative and performative idioms and translate them into dramaturgy; and an original play, Emi Caesar! in which core elements of Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar are transplanted into the complex, violent world of Yoruba politics of the mid-19th century, as a parable for contemporary Nigeria politics where factionalism (specifically tribal/ethnic bigotry) works against the integrity and security of the society. -

Arabic and English Literary Modernisms: Points of Convergence and Divergence
International Journal of Language and Literature June 2016, Vol. 4, No. 1, pp. 150-159 ISSN: 2334-234X (Print), 2334-2358 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). 2015. All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/ijll.v4n1a17 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/ijll.v4n1a17 Arabic and English Literary Modernisms: Points of Convergence and Divergence Mohammed A. A. Hizabr Alhusami1 Abstract This comparative study presents a new perspective on discussing the relationship between Arabic and English modernist poetry. Most of the previous Arabic studies in the field of comparative literature focused on the issue of the “influence” rather than Inter textulaity and acculturation between the two literatures, Arabic and English. Similarly, the scholarships available in English on the topic either apply Western theories on Arabic literature or study the topic from Western perspective. The study argues that though the similarity between Arabic and English modernisms, Arabic modernism remains in its own right draws on Arabic cultural heritage. The similarity between Arabic and English modernisms is due the factors of acculturation and hybridity between Arabs and the Westerners. The study concludes that Arabic modernism is an Arabic offspring and enjoys its own cultural identity. In this sense, this study rejects the Eurocentric hegemony which always westernizes “modernism”. Keywords: New Woman, Weimar Republic, Gina Kaus, Die Verliebten Aim of the study This study aims at displaying the significant position of Arabic literature among world literatures, and its relationship with English literature. The study also explores the extent of hybridity and acculturation between the Arab world and the West. -

Rupert Brooke: a Landmark in Skyros' History
Rupert Brooke: A landmark in Skyros’ history by Anna Faltaits One hundred years ago, on April 23rd 1915, a young British soldier died and was buried on the remote island of Skyros. The Skyrians didn’t know who the unfortunate man was –in all likelihood they couldn’t even read his name which was written in English on his grave’s simple wooden cross. Even so, they mourned him as if he were their own child. They lit a candle and burned incense to the unknown soldier’s memory and there would always be someone who would leave a few flowers on his grave, even though it was so far from the island’s main town. Little did they know that, only a few years later, this young man, would become a focal point for the development of Skyros, breathing new life into a very ancient, but practically abandoned as time went by, part of Greece’s civilization. Rupert Brooke had already published collections of his poems before he died, however it took quite a few years before his poetic grandeur was recognized and he be placed among the pantheon of the Great War Poets. This was thanks to the laborious and tireless efforts of a Belgian philanthropist and poet, Professor Paul Vanderborght, who in 1920 started his efforts to create an International Committee for the poet Rupert Brook, that would undertake –among other actions- the erection of a monument in honor of the prematurely deceased poet. In his efforts, he was aided not only by eminent men –and women- of intellect from abroad, but also by many enlightened Greeks, including the then president of the community of Skyros Sophocles Stefanidis, Greek sculptor Michael Tombros (who created the monument), painters Dimitris Stephanopoulos and Harikleia Alexandridou-Stefanopoulou, and the president of the Association of Skyros in Athens, journalist Costas Faltaits. -

The Leads of the Modernity in Modern Arabic Poetry
REVIEW OF INTERNATIONAL GEOGRAPHICAL EDUCATION ISSN: 2146-0353 ● © RIGEO ● 11(4), WINTER, 2021 www.rigeo.org Research Article The Leads of The Modernity in Modern Arabic Poetry Hamzah Obayes Janabi1 Kadhim Jasim Mansoor Al-Azzawi2 Al-Mustaqbal University College, Babil- Iraq College of Arts, Dept. of Arabic Language University of Babylon-Iraq [email protected] 1 Corresponding Author: Email: [email protected] Abstract Modernity in our Arabic poetry witnessed an evident development, the emergence of the Muwashah (kind of poetry) among the Andalusians starting a renewal in the structure of Arabic poetry. Since the Abbasid period, a number of poets tried to undermine the old pattern represented by the column of poetry based on the two-part system, and rebelled against the structure of the ancient Arab poem, until the appearance of the Muwashah among the Andalusians as a renewal in the structure of Arabic poetry. The modern era witnessed poetic renewal movements, starts by the poets of the exile, led by Jubran Khalil Jubran, then the Diwan and the Apollo groups as renewal movements called for poetry to reach the highness of poetry, paved the way for free verse, then the prose, and the Wamdhah (a poetic text in different forms) and meditation poetry (haiku).
