Abdelkébir Khatibi (1938–2009) is one of the greatest Moroccan
thinkers, and one of the most important theorists of both
postcolonialism and Islamic culture of the late twentieth and early
twenty-first centuries. This book introduces his works to
Anglophone readers, tracing his development from the early work on
sociology in Morocco to his literary and aesthetic works
championing transnationalism and multilingualism. The essays here
both offer close analyses of Khatibi’s engagements with a range
of issues, from Moroccan politics to Arabic calligraphy and from
decolonisation to interculturality, and highlights the important
contribution of his thinking to the development of Western
postcolonial and modern theory. The book acknowledges the legacy of
one of the greatest African thinkers of the last century, and
addresses the lack of attention to his work in the field of
postcolonial studies. More than a writer, a sociologist or a
thinker, Khatibi was a leading figure and an eclectic intellectual
whose erudite works can still inform and enrich current reflections
on the future of postcolonialism and the development of
intercultural and transnational studies. The book also includes
translated excerpts from Khatibi’s works, thus offering a
multilingual perspective on his writing. Contributors: Assia
