Abstract

This volume sets El Saadawi's literary work within the context of her activism, in particular showing how her ideas for the renewal of society run through her writing. As a companion for reading her fiction and nonfiction, this volume contextualizes her work by taking into consideration the complexities of Egyptian society today - in particular, Islamic fundamentalism and women's status. It also introduces the current scholarly debate on ancient women's status. Chapters on individual novels look both at technique (oral literary traditions, woman's narrative, imagery) and topic (female circumci

Abstract

"The writing of Nawal El Saadawi is essential to anyone wishing to understand the contemporary Arab world. Her dissident voice has stayed as consistent in its critique of neo-imperialist international politics as it has in its denunciation of women's oppression, both in her native Egypt and in the wider world. Saadawi is a figure of international significance, and her work has a central place in Arabic history and culture of the last half century. Featuring work never before translated into English, The Essential Nawal El Saadawi gathers together a wide range of Saadawi's writing. From novellas and short stories to essays on politics, culture, religion and sex; from extensive interviews to her work as a dramatist; from poetry to autobiography, this book is essential for anyone wishing to gain a sense of the breadth of Saadawi's work."--Page 4 of cover.

Abstract

Dit is wellicht de eerste grondige studie gewijd aan de vooraanstaande Arabische feministe en schrijfster Nawal El Sadaawi. Bedoeling is na te gaan of en waarom El Sadaawi's proza niet alleen polemische retoriek maar ook literatuur is. De auteur besteedt veel aandacht aan de situering van El Sadaawi's werk in de islamitische en Arabische context en in de klassieke en moderne Arabische literatuur. Daaraan wordt een uitgebreide close reading van haar prozawerk gekoppeld.

Abstract

Diary of a Child Called Souad is Nawal El Saadawi's first autobiography, written at the age of ten in the form of fiction as she explores her early awakening to the world around her. Now known for her bold spirit and probing mind, El Saadawi in this novel uncovers through a child's eyes the hypocritical values and traditions carried on by family, education, religion, and society. With amazing courage she weaves a tale of the fear, guilt, and repressive compliance forced upon her as a woman and upon her generation as the price to be paid for leading a civilized existence. Struggling to come to terms with taboos concerning her maturing body, the young Nawal's writing reveals the makings of a revolutionary spirit and relentlessly analytical mind. A must read for devotees of El Saadawi's writing to witness an early record of the maturing of her thoughts and the shaping of her ideas.
