The selection of essays in this volume offers a set of new insights on a cluster of tropes: self-discovery, alienation, nostalgia, transmission and translation of knowledge, sense of exile, reconfiguration of the relationship with the past and the identity, and the building of transnational identity. A coherent yet multi-faced narrative of micro-stories and of transcultural and transnational Arab identities will emerge from the essays: the volume aims at reversing the traditional perspective according to which a migrant subject is a non-political actor. In contrast to many books about migration and literature, this one explores how the migrant subject becomes a specific literary trope, a catalyst of modern alienation, displacement and uncertain identity, suggesting new forms of subjectification. Multiple representations of the migrant subject inform and perform the possibility of new post-national and transcultural individual and group identities and actively contribute to rewriting and decolonizing history"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Migrating to and in Europe beyond the nah?awi and modernist paradigm : Mudun bi-laÌ nakhiÌl by TaÌriq al-TÌ£ayyib and TaytanikaÌt Ifriqiyya by AbuÌ Bakr KhaÌl as novels of forced migration / Maria Elena Paniconi -- Transcultural identities in two novels by HÌ£anaÌn al-Shaykh / Martina Censi -- The body and the migrating subject in the Gulf : Daqq al-tÌ£abuÌl by MuhÌ£ammad al-BisaÌtÌ£iÌ / Cristina Dozio -- Writing Arabic in the land of migration : Waciny Laredj from HÌ£aÌrisat al-zÌ£ilaÌl : DuÌn KiÌshuÌt fiÌ al-GÌazaÌ'ir to ShurafaÌt bahÌ£r al-shamaÌl : AmtÌ£aÌr AmstirdaÌm / Jolanda Guardi -- Resistant assimilation and hometactics as decolonial practices : the stories of Leilah and Ibrahim in The orange trees of Baghdad / Shima Shahbazi -- The negotiation of identity in Laila Halaby's Once in a promised land and West of Jordan / Sara Arami -- "Smotherland" speaks : Syrian refugee identity in the spaces between media and literature / Roula Salam -- The global migration context and the contemporary Iraqi novel / Ikram Masmoudi. 650 0 $a Emigration and immigration in literature. 650 0 $a Immigrants in literature. 650 0 $a Exiles in literature. 650 0 $a Arabic literature $x History and criticism. 650 7 $a Arabic literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00812478 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908732 650 7 $a Exiles in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00918151 650 7 $a Immigrants in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00967800 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a Literary criticism. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Censi, Martina, $e editor. 700 1 $a Paniconi, Maria Elena, $e editor. 700 1 $a TÌ£ayyib, TÌ£aÌriq, $d 1959- $e associated name. $5 IaU 830 0 $a Routledge advances in Middle East and Islamic studies ; $v 28. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117020323.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FB4030B63D8C11EE8AE814B62EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
