Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Haram in the Harem focuses on the differences in nationalist discourse regarding women and the way female writers conceptualized the experience of women in three contexts: the middle-class Muslim reform movement, the Algerian Revolution, and the Partition of India. During each of these periods the subject of women, their behavior, bodies, and dress were discussed by male scholars, politicians, and revolutionaries. The resonating theme amongst these disparate events is that women were believed to be best protected when they were ensconced within their homes and governed by their families, particularly male authority, whether they were fathers, brothers, or husbands. The threat to national identity was often linked to the preservation of womanly purity. Yet for the writers of this study, Ismat Chughtai (1915-1991), Assia Djebar (1936-), and Khadija Mastur (1927-1982), the danger to women was not in the public sphere but embedded within a domestic hierarchy enforced by male privilege. In their fictional texts, each writer shows how women resist, subvert, and challenge the normative behaviors prescribed in masculine discourse. In their writings they highlight the different ways women negotiated private spaces between intersecting masculine hegemonies of power including colonialism and native patriarchy. They demonstrate distinct literary viewpoints of nation, home, and women's experiences at particular historical moments. The choice of these various texts reveals how fiction provided a safe space for female writers to contest traditional systems of power. Bringing into focus the voices and experiences of women - who existed as limited cultural icons in the nationalist discourse - is a common theme throughout the selected stories. This book showcases the fluidity of literature as a response to the intersections of gender, race, and nation.…

Book fine, jacket near fine, lightly rubbed. This continues the Waqif Art Center's "Qatar Narratives" Project, launched in 2008 by editors Carol Henderson and Mohanalakshmi Rajakumar to promote writing within the Doha community. It initially involved encouraging female students at Qatar University in writing workshops to explore their views and voices on the page, before opening to women across Qatar. The authors are seen as a "hinge generation" between tradition and modernity. This volume thus contains numerous first hand accounts on Qatari society, wedding customs, urbanisation and sense of place, shifting dynamics within the family, etc. Also included are author and editor biographies. …
