Description

Book Synopsis
This volume, dedicated to Jaroslav Stetkevych, includes a number of original contributions that signify a rhetorical shift in the social sciences and Arabic studies. The articles and essays deal with Orientalism, classical Arabic tradition, Andalusian poetry, Francophone literature, translation, architecture and poetry, comparative studies, and Sufism. Literary production is studied in its own terms to situate these literary concerns in the mainstream of cultural studies. The outcome is a solid and highly sophisticated scholarship that makes this book one of the most needed among scholars and students of comparative literature, Arabic poetics and politics, Orientalism, Afro-Asian studies, East/West encounters and translation.

Table of Contents
Contributors to this volume include: Suzanne P. Stetkevych, Akiko M.Sumi, Aida Azouqa, Elizabeth Holt, Michael Sells, Samer Ali, James T. Monroe, Emil Homerin, and Roger Allen.
