Description

Explore the evolution of Arabic creative writing with this authoritative volume from Cambridge University Press. This book provides a comprehensive critical survey of literary developments from the mid-nineteenth century to the present day. As secular education, printing, and journalism expanded, a new reading public emerged across the region. This text examines how the disintegration of the Ottoman Empire and the rise of nationalism shaped the literary landscape. It also explores the complex relationship between Islamic traditions and increasing Westernization. Readers will learn how the traditional view of literature as a display of verbal skill changed over time. Instead, writers began to use their craft to reflect and influence social change. This volume is an essential resource for students, academics, and anyone interested in the history of Arabic language and culture.
