La Mar De Llibres Per Endinsar-Se En El Món Àrab La mar de llibres per endinsar-se en el món àrab Guia de lectura Selecció de llibres i ressenyes: Theodor Loinaz i Elia Romo Coordinació: Isaías Barreñada (Casa Árabe-IEAM) Elisabetta Ciuccarelli (IEMed) Daniel Gil (Casa Árabe-IEAM) Lurdes Vidal (IEMed) Disseny gràfic: Núria Esparza (IEMed) Maquetació: Yvonne Trigueros Agraïments: Ahmad Alkuwaifi Dolors Bramon Laura Feliu Anna Gil Elisenda Macià Primera edició: setembre de 2009 ISBN: Dipòsit legal: Presentació Cada dia som espectadors de milers d’imatges, informacions concretes, puntuals i molt sovint fragmentades, que ens traslladen inexorablement a indrets del món més o menys coneguts. Malgrat viure un moment històric en què accedir a la informació ens és més fàcil que mai, sovint no disposem de les eines per aprofundir en aquelles informacions que ens arriben. Sens dubte, dialogar és el camí més directe per assolir un coneixement de primera mà sobre allò que ens és nou, desconegut, interessant. Aquest diàleg pot recórrer camins diferents: els del viatge, l’estudi o la lectura són camins privilegiats que ens ajuden a obrir les portes de nous mons de coneixement. A través d’aquestes pàgines us convidem a emprendre un viatge cap al món àrab, entès en tota la seva diversitat, riquesa i complexitat ètnica, lingüística, religiosa i cultural. Llegir constitueix una de les millors maneres de conèixer la realitat que ens resulta aliena, i convertir-la en una realitat compartida. És per aquest motiu que l’Institut Europeu de la Mediterrània i Casa Árabe han volgut reunir en aquest volum La mar de llibres per endinsar-se en el món àrab una mostra significativa de les publicacions en llengua catalana de diversos gèneres (assaig, literatura, llengua, viatges, gastronomia…) que a dia d’avui tenim a l’abast, a biblioteques i llibreries. Aquesta recopilació no pretén ser exhaustiva ja que, malgrat el que es podria pensar d’entrada, en lloc de trobar-nos amb una escassa producció editorial sobre el món àrab, la quantitat de referències localitzades evidencia un interès excepcional que data de molt temps enrere i que afortunadament sembla anar en augment. Així doncs, la selecció representativa de títols que presentem respon a criteris d’actualitat i accessibilitat, sense deixar de banda algunes obres rellevants, i constitueix una proposta que esperem que més endavant puguem ampliar. Tot i ser conscients de les possibles mancances que s’hi puguin trobar, esperem que aquesta guia de lectura obri les portes del món àrab a tots els lectors, experts o no, que els permeti endinsar-se en el coneixement i recórrer els camins que, a través de la Mediterrània i d’aquesta «mar de llibres», ens condueixen a la realitat complexa i diversa del món àrab.

  • Cultural Continuity in Modern Iraqi Painting Between 1950- 1980
    Vol.14/No.47/May 2017 Received 2016/06/13 Accepted 2016/11/02 Persian translation of this paper entitled: تداوم فرهنگی در نقاشی مدرن عراق بین سال های 1950 و 1980 is also published in this issue of journal. Cultural Continuity in Modern Iraqi Painting between 1950- 1980 Shakiba Sharifian* Mehdi Mohammadzade** Silvia Naef*** Mostafa Mehraeen**** Abstract Since the early years of 1950, which represent the development period of modern Iraqi art, the “return to the roots” movement has been an impartible mainstream in Iraq. The first generation of modern artists like Jewad Salim and Shakir Hassan Al-Said considered “cultural continuity” and the link between “tradition and modernity” and “inspiration from heritage1” as the main essence of their artistic creation and bequeathed this approach to their next generation. Having analyzed and described a selection of artworks of modern Iraqi artists, this paper discusses the evolution of modern Iraqi art, and aims to determine cultural and artistic continuity in modern paintings of Iraq. It also seeks to answer the questions that investigate the socio-cultural factors that underlie the formation of art and establish a link between traditional and modern ideas and lead to continuity in tradition. Therefore, the research hypothesis is put to scrutiny on the basis of Robert wuthnow’s theory. According to Wuthnow, although configuration and the objective production of this movement is rooted in the “mobilization of resources”, the artistic content and approach of the painting movement (i.e. the continuation of the tradition along with addressing modern ideas) is influenced by factors such as “social Horizon”, “existing discursive context” and “cultural capital” of the painters.

  • Defamiliarization in the Poetry of 'Abd Al-Wahh�B Al-Bay�T� and T
    DEFAMILIARIZATION IN THE POETRY OF 'ABD AL-WAHH�B AL-BAY�T� AND T. S. ELIOT: A COMPARATIVE STUDY The recoil of 'Abd al-Wahhab al-Bayati (1926-1999) from Romanticism with the publication of Abdriq Muhashshamah (Broken Pitchers, 1954),' sig- nalled a shift in his poetic style and subject matter. Al-Bayati's poetry turned increasingly oblique while it became involved in Pan-Arab socio- political affairs. His experimentation with poetic language and devices, how- ever, only matured with the publication of Alladhi Ya'ti wa /a Ya'ti (He Who Comes and Does Not Come, The outstanding characteristic of al-Bayati's poetry since Broken Pitchers became a progress towards achiev- ing defamiliarization. The term defamiliarization, which was coined by Victor Shklovsky, denotes the use of language and poetic devices that ren- der a poem a complex and an ambigious work of art because the "technique of art is to make objects 'unfamiliar The transition in al-Bayati's poetry occurred, in fact, as the result of the reception of the work of T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) in the Arab World through its translations, which, according to Jabra Ibrahim Jabra, had commenced in the 1940s.4 Eliot's free verse initiated the formation of the new literary movement of the so-called New Poets, which included Ndzik al-Mala'ikah (b. 1926), Badr Shakir al-Sayyab (1926-1964), and al-Bayati himself, who became the pioneers of free verse in the early 1950s.5 In this respect, Salma A brief presentation on this paper's central concern and methodology was given in the First International Conference of the Association of Professors of English and Translation at Arab Universities, held in Amman, Jordan, August 28-30, 2000.

  • 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.

Khaldoun Al-Shamaa 3 ABSTRACT This thesis aims to provide the interested reader with a critical account of far-reaching changes in modem Arabic literary theory, approximately since the 1970s, in the light of an ascending paradigm in motion , and of the tendency by subsequent critics and commentators to view litefary criticism in terms of self-a elaborating category morphing into cultural critique. The first part focuses on interdisciplinary problems confronting Arab critics in their attempt “to modernize but not to westernize”, and also provides a comparative treatment of the terms, concepts and definitions used in the context of an ever-growing Arabic literary canon, along with consideration of how these relate to European modernist thought and of the controversies surrounding them among Arab critics.

Articulated in resis- tance to Zionist propaganda literature and in solidarity with Marxist- Leninist revolutionary struggles in the Third World, Kanafani was inspired by Maxim Gorky, William Faulkner, and Mao Zedong alike. In books, essays, and lectures, Kanafani argued that Zionist propaganda literature served as a “weapon” in the war against Palestine, returning repeatedly to Arthur Koestler’s 1946 Thieves in the Night.

In contrast to the totality of Arabic poetry since medieval period, Modern Arabic poetry is the best described one in a field of on-going experimentation with a new set of topics, choices, concerns, inspirations and forms. ** The Novel and Prose on Various social and cultural issues have been the most important genres of Arabic Literature; they have enriched the Arabic Literature heavily in Medieval as well as Modern periods. This genre, especially the Arabic Novel, has received the greatest attention, and today it has made its presence felt across the world.
