Selected Studies in Modern Arabic Narrative : History, Genre, Translation PDF
by Roger Allen
Part of the Resources in Arabic and Islamic Studies series
Description
No Western scholar has contributed as much to the study of modern Arabic narrative as has Roger Allen.
His doctoral dissertation was the very first Oxford D.Phil. in modern Arabic literature, completed in 1968 under the supervision of Mustafa Badawi.
That same year, he took a position in Arabic language and literature at the University of Pennsylvania, the oldest professorial post in Arabic in the United States.
Roger Allen has been phenomenally prolific: fifty books and translations, two hundred articles and counting-on Arabic language pedagogy, on translation, on Arabic literary history, criticism and literature.
He is also one of the most decorated and acclaimed translators of Arabic literature.
The present volume brings together sixteen of Roger Allen's articles on modern Arabic narrative, with a focus on genre, translation and literary history, and features analyses of the works of Rashid Abu Jadrah, Bensalem Himmich, Yusuf Idris, Naguib Mahfouz, and Tayeb Salih.
