Moroccan Women's Writing: Between Past& Present

By Bouchra Belgaid

The book is a collection of essays that looks at the factors that have impacted the emergence of women's writings and the rise of their consciousness in Morocco within a political and cultural framework during the colonial era and after the independence. The book as well explores the rich profusion of literary works written by Moroccan women and dismantles perceptions of women's silence and exclusion from the political and literary scene. The essays offer astute analysis of issues of gender and the discourse of Orientalism within women's literature and probe the lack of the environmental discourse in Arab literature, gender and the environment. Generally, the articles within this booklet investigate diverse issues ranging from cultural representation of women in Moroccan female literature, travel and Orientalism, the greening of Arab literature as well as gender and the environment.
