Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Michigan, 2007.

This dissertation offers a framework for the study of Arabic narrative autobiographical identities as diverse, heterogeneous and multilayered constructions that are necessarily engaged in complex negotiations with various extra-textual discourses (cultural, religious, social, political, ideological, etc.). Presenting case studies that illustrate the remarkable variety of autobiographical modalities, I offer insight into how different conceptions of selfhood and identity circulate in contemporary Arab societies. The primary texts, utilized for this study, include Hanna Mina's Fragments of Memory, Leila Abouzeid's Year of the Elephant, Miral al-Tahawi's Blue Aubergine, Assia Djebar's L 'Amour, La Fantasia, Muhammad Mrabet's Look & Move On, Muhammad Shukri's Naked Bread, Nazik Saba Yarid's Improvisations on a Missing String, Somayah Ramadan's Leaves of Narcissus, Batul al-Khudayri's A Sky So Close, and Ihab Hassan's Out of Egypt.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation offers a framework for the study of Arabic narrative autobiographical identities as diverse, heterogeneous and multilayered constructions that are necessarily engaged in complex negotiations with various extra-textual discourses (cultural, religious, social, political, ideological, etc.). Presenting case studies that illustrate the remarkable variety of autobiographical modalities, I offer insight into how different conceptions of selfhood and identity circulate in contemporary Arab societies. The primary texts, utilized for this study, include Hanna Mina's Fragments of Memory, Leila Abouzeid's Year of the Elephant, Miral al-Tahawi's Blue Aubergine, Assia Djebar's L 'Amour, La Fantasia, Muhammad Mrabet's Look & Move On, Muhammad Shukri's Naked Bread, Nazik Saba Yarid's Improvisations on a Missing String, Somayah Ramadan's Leaves of Narcissus, Batul al-Khudayri's A Sky So Close, and Ihab Hassan's Out of Egypt.
520 $a I investigate the diverse modalities of autobiographical subjectivity constructed in the most current developments of the autobiographical genre in Arabic narrative discourse. The primary objective of this study is to analyze the ways in which the immensely various conceptions of self, formulated in contemporary Arabic autobiographical production, have evolved and deviated from the notions of uniform, intact and heterogeneous subjectivity, offered in traditional works of the genre.
520 $a A crucially important aspect of my study is that it is not limited to the examination of narrative/textual characteristics of the autobiographical. Taking into account that narrative autobiographical subjectivities (in addition to their literary value) inform us about certain conceptions of selfhood, which circulate in extra-textual contexts of a given culture, I investigate how various modalities of the autobiographical (postcolonial, gendered, corporeal, and displaced), in the examined works reflect and elucidate different modes of "identity" which are disseminated and transmitted in Arab cultures and societies.
