Introducing readers to the extremely rich tradition of Arabic
literature, this Anthology covers some of its major themes and
concerns across the centuries, from its early beginnings to modern
times. The texts chosen are a 'library of personal preferences' of
a scholar who has spent half a century or more in the company of
Arabic books, marking then translating those passages that seemed
to him to capture some of its most memorable moments. Reflecting
the great diversity and unpredictability of Arabic literature as
the carrier of a major world culture, both pre-modern and modern,
the Anthology is divided thematically to highlight modern issues
such as love, religion, the human self, human rights, freedom of
expression, the environment, violence, secular thought, and
feminism. The short, easy-to-read texts are accessible to
non-specialists, providing an ideal entry point to this
extraordinary literature.
