Here in the U.S., Nor- een explains that the belly dance is often performed at bridal showers, bachelorette parties, or even baby showers. “It’s a won- derful celebration of femininity, bring- ing women together in movement,” she says. “I’ve participated in all of these dif- ferent elements locally with Lebanese, Ira- nian, Iraqi families, and non-Middle East- ern Americans who want to include the symbolism and the joy of the belly dance.” Sounds like the perfect way to shake up the reception with your bridesmaids. LUCK OF THE IRISH or some, like James McClay and his wife Meghan, the world is their backdrop. In 2014, the Portland Fresidents celebrated their wedding in Ire- land, where James grew up. “Meghan grew up in Bridgewater, Massachusetts.

Meghan only really celebrat- ed her Irish side,” James says. “I use cele- brate loosely–she has a shamrock tattoo on her ankle. She’s very embarrassed about it since meeting me!” The Emerald Isle may be out of reach for many of us, but for those who wear a sham- rock on their hearts (or ankles), The Maine Irish Heritage Center, formerly St. Domi- nic’s Church, is one of the most beautiful landmarks in the city for a wedding.

Bibliography 63 2 Introduction Modern Hebrew literature originated and developed in Europe since the late 18th century as an exclusive Jewish affair. Over time Hebrew literature in Europe became interconnected with the ideology of Zionism and Jewish nationalism and society became central themes of the modern Hebrew canon.1 In 1948 Zionism culminated into the establishment of the state of Israel and since then Israel was the main center of Hebrew literary production. However, there is also a substantial Arab minority living in Israel, something that was not foreseen by the Zionist establishment, and led to the placement of the Arab minority under a military administration from 1949 until 1966.2 The modern Hebrew canon until this time had served as a national Jewish literature which was exclusively produced by Jewish authors, but since the second half of the 1960s, after the military administration had ended, Hebrew literary works by Arab authors who are citizens of the state of Israel have also started to appear.

  • Arabs As Portrayed in the Israeli Hebrew Literature Since the Second World War
    - 1 - ARABS AS PORTRAYED IN THE ISRAELI HEBREW LITERATURE SINCE THE SECOND WORLD WAR Introduction The romantic - nostalgic approach prevalent in the Israeli Hebrew literature in the years of the Twenties and Thirties. Review Modern Hebrew literary critics draw the line between two distinct periods dealing with the topic. The first - the years 1920- . 1930; the second - the outbreak of the Second World War, the years since 1940. Both diffe~ radically in their approach to the topic. Writers of the first period see the Arabs romantically, like ' i a myth of bygone days~ The writers of the later period see the Arabs as a problem, and their portrayal is more realistic. The writers, who arrived in Eretz Israel with the second and third aliyah (immigration wave) in the years 1904-1914, and then after the First World War in the years 1919-1923, hailed from Eastern Europe. They were familiar with the landscape of Eastern Europe; they found the scenery of Eretz I srael strange and exotic. The Negev, the Galil, the Arab villages, the Bedouin and their tents, the camels, the citrus groves, the palm trees, the cypresses, the eucalyptus trees (introduced to Eretz Israeli soil from Australia as a means of eliminating the swamps) with their white stems and willowy drooping branches, all made a deep impression upon the young Chalutzim and caught their imagination. Nurtured by the early Zionist movement, 'Friends of Zion', these writers had the sensational feeling that the ancient Eretz Israel, so vividly reflected in the Bible, h~d come alive again and they instinctively imagined the Arabs to be the people of the Bible.

The Sound of Culture, The Structure of Tradition Musicians7 Work in Arab Detroit Anne Rasmussen WITH THEIR LOUD sound systems and lively dance tunes, Arab Amer- ican musicians bring to community gatherings an all-encompassing sonic environment that replaces the host culture with the home cul- ture. Night after night, performance after performance, they supply "the language of Diaspora" (Clifford 1994). While I have framed musicians as "curators of culture" and their activity as "art," they have continuously referred to the same as "work" (Rasmussen 1989, 1991). Their work, as they have told me time and again, is audience driven, and they are surprisingly compliant with the sometimes abrupt demands of their clientele. Although this way of performing cannot be reduced to a simple formula, several patterns are apparent in the careers of Arab American musicians that help explain why they tend to discuss their "art" as "work,"1 and these patterns have been in place for much of the twentieth century.

DESCRIPTORS *Arabs; *Cultural Background; Ethnic Groups; *Family Life; *Immigrants; Local History; Marriage; *North Americans; *Social History IDENTIFIERS *Ohio (Cleveland) ABSTRACT This document discusses the life celebrations of Arab American immigrants to Cleveland from the late 1870s. Assembled from what is largely an oral tradition of family history, the booklet describes the home life, weddings, and final partings when elderly relatives returned to the homeland or died in the United States. The economic situation and problems facing the first generation of immigrants included language, religious, and social differences that set the Arab Americans apart from other groups of immigrants. The customs of marriage described include the formalities of betrothal and the consequences of a broken engagement, with the onus usually falling on the young woman in the past, jeopardizing her chances for a second match. The wedding customs include the party given for the bride by the women of both families. The wedding day, ceremony, and feast is pictured in detail. Marriages were arranged. The effect on the bride of moving from her family's home to that of her new husband's family is considered.

  • The Contribution of Arab Muslims to the Provencal Lyrical Poetry: the Troubadours in the Twelfth Century
    Journal of Arts, Vol. 27, Number (1), pp1-20 ,king Sand Univ., Riyadh (2015 /1436H.) The Contribution of Arab Muslims to the Provencal Lyrical Poetry: the Troubadours in the Twelfth Century Yahya Saleh Hassan Dahami Assistant Professor of English, Department of Theoretical Courses, Faculty of Sports , Sana'a University, Currently: Department of English, Faculty of Science and Arts , Al Mandaq, Al Baha University )Received 7/6/1435H; Accepted for publication 27/7/1435H) Keywords: Arab Muslims, Contribution, Mawashahat, Zajal, Troubadours, Provencal, Poetry, Twelfth Century, Renaissance, literature Abstract:This study is a historical-analytical attempt to demonstrate the influence and contribution of Arab Islamic Mawashahat and Zajal on the Provencal lyrical poets – the Troubadours that sprang in south of France during the eleventh century. The study consists of three parts in which the first part represents the main part. It sheds light on the influence of Muwashashah and Zajal on the poetry of troubadours. The second part deals with the nature of troubadours and their relation with the poetry of Muwashashah and Zajal. It is supported with five troubadour poets. The last part goes back to the beginning of the European Renaissance in the twelfth century. The European Renaissance started in Italy decades after translations of Islamic heritage, literature and science from Arabic into Latin then from Latin to other European languages. The eighth through the eleventh centuries witnessed the glorious ages of Islamic civilization and sciences in which great portion of it was shifted to Italy during and after the crusades. Thence, different parts of Europe were enlivened with the movement of translation and multi travels and cultural exchange.
