Kingma Title: DEMOCRATIC TRANSITIONS IN DIVIDED STATES: THE CASE OF IRAQ Advisor: Nader Hashemi Degree Date: June 2012 Abstract Many theorists have posited that democratic transitions in states divided along ethnic, racial, or religious lines are accompanied by violent conflict and thus unlikely to succeed. The end of authoritarian rule in Iraq and the introduction of democracy by the United States has been followed by many such challenges, and it has been argued that the artificial Iraqi state and its Kurdish, Sunni, and Shia communities does not possess the unity as required by democratic government.

    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.

  • Arab American Literature and the Ethnic American Landscape: Language, Identity, and Community
    Arab American Literature and the Ethnic American Landscape: Language, Identity, and Community A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Niven Herro, B.A., M.A. July 2018 Committee Chair: Jennifer Glaser, Ph.D. Committee Members: Lisa Hogeland, Ph.D., Laura Micciche, Ph.D. Abstract This dissertation explores the works of contemporary Arab American women writers with a focus on language, identity, and community. I am especially interested in the ways in which the Arab American immigrant experience mirrors that of other ethnic American groups, as demonstrated in their literatures. First, I argue that Randa Jarrar’s debut novel, A Map of Home (2008), which uses language—both Arabic and English—as a source of empowerment, reflects Chicana writer Gloria Anzaldúa’s concept of the “new mestiza consciousness.” Comparing the Chinatown community in Fae Myenne Ng’s Bone (1993), to the Muslim community in Mohja Kahf’s The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf (2006), reveals the complicated relationships the novels’ characters have with their communities. In both novels, the personal development of their young women protagonists is greatly influenced by their respective communities, which simultaneously serve as positive sites of support and complex sites of difficult negotiations. While the characters in A Map of Home and The Girl in the Tangerine Scarf ultimately learn to effectively navigate their hybrid subject positions as both Arabs and Americans, the failure to do so leads to a tragic end for the couple at the center of Laila Halaby’s Once in a Promised Land.

    The Arabic Novel ﺔ%اوﺮﻟا ﺔ+*(ﻌﻟا ﺔ%اوﺮﻟا PROF. HISHAM MATAR / [email protected] She is free to do what she wants, and free not to do it. Woman at Point Zero by Nawal El Saadawi Prose came before poetry. In the beginning, there was prose. The Tongue of Adam by Abdelfattah Kilito He who has missed out on translation knows not what travail is: None but the warrior is scorched by the fire of war! I find a thousand notion for which there is none akin Among us, and a thousand with none appropriate; And a thousand terms with no equivalent. I find disjunction for junction, though junction is needed. Ahmad Faris al-Shidyaq 1 The Arabic Novel ﺔ%اوﺮﻟا ﺔ+*(ﻌﻟا ﺔ%اوﺮﻟا PROF. HISHAM MATAR / [email protected] Overview Whether seen as a chronicle of social life, a hothouse of ideas and philosophical contemplation, a space for literary invention and the articulation of the quiet as well as the loud moments of existence, the novel is, in its various shapes and forms, a modern phenomenon. Perhaps this is partly why for long time there persisted, both in the minds of some Western and Arabic readers, the notion that the genre is a European invention, and therefore, the Arabic novel in particular, an act of literary mimicry. This is not only erroneous, but it also misses what is actually fascinating about the story of the novel in Arabic. It is a story that tells of a deep engagement with a great literary tradition as well as a commitment to invention.
