Abstract

Nicht erst, seit Öl und Islamismus ihr Bild und ihre Wahrnehmung bestimmen, beschäftigen sich Deutsche mit den Arabern. Schon im 16. Jahrhundert begann ein Araberbild zu entstehen, das mangels engerer Beziehungen allerdings noch diffus war. Die Araber blieben zunächst 'bekannte Unbekannte'. Mit wachsendem geographischem und kulturellem Wissen jedoch erfuhren sie eine genauere, im Wandel der Zeiten wechselnde Beurteilung, schwankend zwischen den Polen von Diffamierung, Kriminalisierung und Glorifizierung. Annette Katzer beschreibt in ihrer detailreichen Stu-die Entstehen und Entwicklung des deutschen Araberbildes bis zum 19. Jahrhundert. Sie bezieht Faktoren wie Religion, geistesgeschichtliche Strömungen und politische Interessen ebenso ein wie die Bedingungen von Kulturkontakten und individuellen Wahrnehmungen. Die farbige Darstellung macht Mechanismen der Stereotypenbildung deutlich, die uns gerade heute bedenkenswert erscheinen sollten.

Abstract

American Arabesque examines representations of Arabs, Islam and the Near East in nineteenth-century American culture, arguing that these representations play a significant role in the development of American national identity over the century, revealing largely unexplored exchanges between these two cultural traditions that will alter how we understand them today.Moving from the period of America’s engagement in the Barbary Wars through the Holy Land travel mania in the years of Jacksonian expansion and into the writings of romantics such as Edgar Allan Poe, the book argues that not only were Arabs and Muslims prominently featured in nineteenth-century literature, but that the differences writers established between figures such as Moors, Bedouins, Turks and Orientals provide proof of the transnational scope of domestic racial politics. Drawing on both English and Arabic language sources, Berman contends that the fluidity and instability of the term Arab as it appears in captivity narratives, travel narratives, imaginative literature, and ethnic literature simultaneously instantiate and undermine definitions of the American nation and American citizenship.

Abstract

This study explores the mother-daughter relationship as the most fundamental and most intimate female relationship and as the cornerstone of Arab family life. Drawing on autobiographical and semifictional works by women writers from across the Arab world, the study offers a first-hand account of how Arab women view and experience this primary bond. The author uses both early and contemporary writings of Arab women to illuminate the traditional and evolving nature of mother-daughter relationships in Arab families and how these family dynamics reflect and influence modern Arab life. The compelling narratives demystify the institutions of family and motherhood and show the potential of mothers and daughters to transform the patriarchal family and thus the fabric of Arab society. A groundbreaking work that fills a void in cross-cultural studies, it is of interest to scholars and students of Middle Eastern studies, women’s studies, and family studies.
