520 | |a Explores discourses on gender and representations of women in modern Iraqi fictionIncludes marginalised voices in Arabic literary scholarship, such as religious writings by Iraqi Shia womenChallenges canonical views of modern Arabic literature by studying propaganda texts such as the novels of Saddam HusseinArgues for an interdisciplinary interpretation of literary texts as cultural products that must be contextualised in the 'market' in which they emerge and are receivedUses the concept of 'paratexts' in order to better understand how political works circulate and are marketed to reach a wider audienceRelates to broader regional issues such as national identity and the status of women in Arabic societiesFind out more: watch Hawraa Al-Hassan in conversation with Narguess Farzad, talking about Women, Writing and the Iraqi Ba'thist StateIn an effort to expand its readership and increase support for its pan-Arab project, the Iraqi Ba'th almost completely eradicated illiteracy among women. As Iraq was metaphorically transformed into a 'female', through its nationalist trope, women writers simultaneously found opportunities and faced obstacles from the state, as the 'woman question' became a site of contention between those who would advocate the progressiveness of the Ba'th and those who would stress its repressiveness and immorality. By exploring discourses on gender in both propaganda and high art fictional writings by Iraqis, this book offers an alternative narrative of the literary and cultural history of Iraq." | ||
