Other groups chose to strictly confine their TV appearances within the limits of their expertise, avoiding pretensions, or the temptation to make claims of knowledge in areas outside their specializations or practical experiences. Nonetheless, a majority of the guests did willingly plunge into the maze of spotlights, exploiting the qualitative and quantitative shortage of truly qualified experts. They emerged as “stars” of the screen, triumphing at the expense of the viewer, regardless of the simplicity of his understanding and the shallowness of his knowledge.

  • Contemporary Iraqi War Fiction: a Comparative Analysis Of
    Contemporary Iraqi War Fiction: A Comparative Analysis of Selected Works by Sinan Antoon and Batool Khedairi by Anwar Noori Bilal Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master in English Language and literature Department of English Faculty of Human Sciences Supervised by Dr. Laila Helmi Associate Professor Department of English Faculty of Human Sciences Beirut Arab University 2018 Contemporary Iraqi War Fiction: A Comparative Analysis of Selected Works by Sinan Antoon and Batool Khedairi Abstract This thesis is a comparative study of contemporary Iraqi war fiction, with special focus on two Iraqi writers, Sinan Antoon and Batool Khedairi. Both writers succeeded, through their works, in revealing hidden realities that are subversive of the dominant narrative. By applying Butler’s and Haslam’s concepts of dehumanization, and Nussbaum’s concepts of objectification in addition to Aghacy’s study of masculinity to the chosen works, the study argues that Iraqis are dehumanized by both war and dictatorship. Iraqis’ bodies are exterminated and mutilated through a process of dehumanization and objectification. Gender roles, where the body plays a major role, are seriously affected not only by war but also by the Iraqi regime that changed its policies towards women more than once and used them as tools for its ends. Art was another target of war and dictatorship; it was abused as a political weapon to impose a new identity on Iraqis. Despite some differences in tackling women’s sickness and women’s sexuality, and adopting different artistic schools in the issue of art, together, Antoon and Khedairi were successful in giving voice to the Iraqi pain.

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.

    ‘A unique, exceptional volume of compelling, thoughtful, and informative essays on the subjects of irregular warfare, counter-insurgency, and counter-terrorism – endeavors that will, unfortunately, continue to be unavoidable and necessary, even as the U.S. and our allies and partners shift our focus to Asia and the Pacific in an era of renewed great power rivalries. The co-editors – the late Michael Sheehan, a brilliant comrade in uniform and beyond, Liam Collins, one of America’s most talented and accomplished special operators and scholars on these subjects, and Erich Marquardt, the founding editor of the CTC Sentinel – have done a masterful job of assembling the works of the best and brightest on these subjects – subjects that will continue to demand our attention, resources, and commitment.’ General (ret.) David Petraeus, former Commander of the Surge in Afghanistan, U.S. Central Command, and Coalition Forces in Afghanistan and former Director of the CIA ‘Terrorism will continue to be a featured security challenge for the foreseeable future. We need to be careful about losing the intellectual and practical expertise hard-won over the last twenty years. This handbook, the brainchild of my late friend and longtime counter-terrorism expert Michael Sheehan, is an extraordinary resource for future policymakers and CT practitioners who will grapple with the evolving terrorism threat.’ General (ret.)
