The Arab world. [Part 4], The bonds of pride [videorecording] / a production of Public Affairs Television, Inc. ; directed by Andrew Carl Wilk ; produced by Betsy McCarthy and Andie Tucher.
Bill Moyers explores the nature of the Arab identity and the main cultural ties that hold the Arab world together--language, the Koran, historical vision, literature and poetry, and humor. Cultural diversity among various Arab groups is examined, along with the role of women in Islamic society. Methods of education, the ancient Arab technique stressing memory versus more modern methods introduced during the period of European colonization, are compared.
