Essays in Arabic Literary Biography: 1850-1950 by Roger Allen,Terri DeYoung,Joseph Edmund Lowry,Devin J. Stewart Pdf
The essays, which discuss authors in a variety of literary genres and across the spectrum of the region concerned-from Iraq in the East to Tunisia in the West-provide clear evidence of the gradually changing roles of the indigenous and the imported which are an intrinsic feature of the movement known in Arabic as al-bahada (cultural revival) and the way in which Arab litterateurs chose to respond to the inspiration that such changes inevitably engendered. --
