Fénelon’s Gods, al-Ṭahṭāwī’s Jinn
Reading Rifāʿa al-Ṭahṭāwī’s 1850s Arabic translation (published 1867) of François Fénelon’s Les Aventures de Télémaque with and against the realist impulses of nineteenth-century British and French literary comparatism, this essay posits al-Ṭahṭāwī’s translation as a transformational moment in the reception of the “European” literary tradition in the Arab-Islamic world. Arguing that the ancient Greek gods who populate Fénelon’s 1699 sequel to Hom…
The Place ofAfrica, in Theory
Twentieth-century African theory translated two destructive diasporas - of peoples by the slave trade, of lands by empire - into a creative third: a pan-Africanist philosophy of decolonization that recoveredAfrica's pluralism as a powerfully "diasporic" defiance of imperial taxonomies. Comparing a 1967 lecture given inCairo bySenegalese poet-president Léopold Sédar Senghor with a 1955 treatise on the philosophy of revolution by Egyptian president…
The Incestuous (Post)Colonial
Proxidistant Reading
Courses that teach modern Arabic literature, particularly those that address students of comparative literature or other non-specialists, often focus on relatively recent exemplars of the canon. Most engage texts that hail from the mid- to late twentieth century—a period in which the fate of “new” narrative genres (for example, the novel) is well established—rather than those that evoke a time when the boundaries between “tradition” and “modernit…
The Returns of Theory
For the discipline of Arabic literature in the United States, “theory” is a double entendre: promise, danger. Until the mid-1990s, U.S. Arabic literary studies was landlocked in Near Eastern language departments, whose “anti-theoretical” bent Magda Al-Nowaihi imputes to dependence on U.S. government and Gulf state support. Theory is “dangerous” to such funders, Al-Nowaihi maintains, because it traffics in “the relations between knowledge and powe…
One Comparative Literature? “Birth” of a Discipline in French-Egyptian Translation, 1810-1834
Comparative literature keeps forgetting itself in incomparability. Rather than concede that it might owe its life to radically translational beginnings, it prefers to assign its conception to ever-shifting—yet always monocentric— “origins.” Indeed, while Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak has boldly announced the fi eld’s “death” (at least in the guise in which many profess it today), the jury is still out on—and still deliberating—its exact date and pla…
