{"product_id":"death-and-continuity-hoda-thabet-9789979727729","title":"Death and Continuity: A comparative study of three modern Arabic novels by female authors","description":"This study proposes the feminist sublime as a basis for the interpretation of three modern Arabic novels written by women. Even though the sublime appears in classical Western literature, psychoanalysis, Biblical exegesis, Buddhist, Arabo-Islamic works of literature and others, feminist objectives have led to the reconfiguration of the concept.The novels analyzed are Woman at Point Zero by Nawāl al-Saʻdāwī, The Story of Zahra by Ḥanān al-Shaykh and Night of the First Billion by Ghādah al-Sammān. Myth and symbol, as well as tragedy, parody, satire, passive resistance, being and becoming, sexuality, sacrifice, and death in the three novels, are discussed in the framework of the feminist sublime.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hoda Thabet\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9979727721\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789979727729\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National and University Library of Iceland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.31d","brand":"Hoda Thabet","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44126140596479,"sku":"9789979727729","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ae451bcf-1166-4ef3-a27d-3d3c4c1bb2bc.jpg?v=1687446497","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/death-and-continuity-hoda-thabet-9789979727729","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
