Language of instruction will be Arabic
This course aims to explore the profound impact of exile and displacement on contemporary Arab women writers in the aftermath of the 2011 Arab Uprisings. Through an analysis of literary works by writers from countries such as Yemen, Libya, Syria, and Iraq, the course will focus on how themes of melancholy, identity, and the trauma of displacement shape their narratives. By highlighting both personal and political dimensions, the course will reveal how these writers use their outsider perspectives to depict the harsh realities of their homelands, while grappling with the emotional toll of exile.
