Translating the Postcolonial Condition in Souffles-Anfas
Engaging with recent postcolonial scholarship on translation, this article attempts to shed light on the manner in which Souffles-Anfas’s translation practice, though situated in the peak of Arab nationalist and Pan-Africanist movements and in the Cold War climate, enabled it to function in ways that recent scholarship in postcolonial and global studies attributes primarily to cultural practices, reading trends and discursive strategies that are …
Bringing into focus narrative text and subtext in Moroccan film
As a reading of a (forbidden) Moroccan love story, this article examines the ways in which the narrative structure of Laila Marrakchi's Marock (2005) creates meaning by presenting the image not only as a ‘story’ (or content), but also as ‘narration’ (or an act of enunciation) that delivers ‘new images’ (in the Deuleuzian sense) of Moroccan society. In addition to the emblematic title, which expresses the notion of identity formation through proce…

The critical potential of the manifesto is explored and the limitations of its rhetoric ar…

Theattention of many western and non-western scholars in the field has long been direc…

My main interest is to explore the various discursive articulations of female identity that are challenged or foregrounded as a positive model. The essay points to the serious pitfalls of some feminist narrat…
