Specificatii
Far from offering another study that bemoans Arab women's
repression and veiling, Anxiety of Erasure looks at Arab women
writers living in the diaspora who have translated their
experiences into a productive and creative force. In this book,
Al-Samman articulates the therapeutic effects of revisiting
forgotten histories and of activating two cultural tropes: that of
the maw'udah (buried female infant) and that of Shahrazad in the
process of revolutionary change. She asks what it means to develop
a national, gendered consciousness from diasporic locals while
staying committed to the homeland.Al-Samman presents close readings
of the fiction of six prominent authors whose works span over half
a century and define the current status of Arab diaspora
studies--Ghada al-Samman, Hanan al-Shaykh, Hamida al-Na'na', Hoda
Barakat, Samar Yazbek, and Salwa al-Neimi. Exploring the journeys
in time and space undertaken by these women, Anxiety of Erasure
shines a light on the ways in which writers remain participants in
their homelands' intellectual lives, asserting both the traumatic
and the triumphant aspects of diaspora. The result is a nuanced
Arab women's poetic that celebrates rootlessness and rootedness,
autonomy and belonging.
