Cultural Criticism in Egyptian Women's Writing - Caroline Seymour-Jorn - Bog

Artfully combining literary analysis with ethnographic research, Seymour- Jorn explores the ways in which five influential women writers generate new patterns of thinking and talking about women, society, and social change. She describes how the writers conceive of their role as authors, particularly as female authors, and how they refigure the Arabic language to express themselves as women.
