ISBN-13: 9780748639267, 978-0748639267. A nuanced understanding of literary imaginings of masculinity and femininity in the Arabic novel. Foregrounding voices that have been marginalised, but also considering canonical works, it engages with new directions in the novel tradition and sheds new light on key debates including the project of nation-building in the modern period; the process of inclusion and exclusion in canon formation; the geopolitics of definitions of national or cultural identity in the global world; and the conceptual discourses on gender and nation.
