Looking Back at al-Andalus: The Poetics of Loss and Nostalgia in Medieval Arabic and Hebrew Literature: Brill Studies in Middle Eastern Literatures, cartea 34

Autor Alexander Elinson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 22 feb 2009
Looking Back at al-Andalus focuses on Arabic and Hebrew Literature that expresses the loss of al-Andalus from multiple vantage points. In doing so, this book examines the definition of al-Andalus’ literary borders, the reconstruction of which navigates between traditional generic formulations and actual political, military and cultural challenges. By looking at a variety of genres, the book shows that literature aiming to recall and define al-Andalus expresses a series of symbolic literary objects more than a geographic and political entity fixed in a single time and place. Looking Back at al-Andalus offers a unique examination into the role of memory, language, and subjectivity in presenting a series of interpretations of what al-Andalus represented to different writers at different historical-cultural moments.

Recenzii

« Au croisement de l’étude littéraire et de l’histoire des mentalités, Looking back at al-Andalus propose une réflexion intéressante sur les notions « d’ andalusité » et « d’arabité », sur les rapports entre l’Andalus, le Masriq et le Magrib, sur les interférences littéraires entre rhétorique arabe et hébraïque, etc. Il est d’une lecture agréable et féconde, sans préjuger des points de désaccord qu’il ne manquera pas de susciter chez certains lecteurs »
Katia Zakharia in BCAI 26 (2010).
