Investigating Teachers’ Perceptions of L1 Use in English as a Foreign Language Moroccan Secondary Classrooms
This article draws on an online survey to collect data about the perceptions of Moroccan secondary school teachers of English in connection with their use of translation in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teaching and learning settings. As in previous research on L1 (first language) use, this study emphasizes the unavoidability of translation and the discrepancy between teachers’ attitudes and their real teaching habits. Uncovering participan…
Translation and traditions
Translation Studies, like other disciplines within humanities and social sciences, is marked by a certain scholarly dominance of Eurocentric episteme and Western philosophical tradition. The significance of other translation histories and orientations appears to be simply obliterated or relegated to peripherical statuses. Recently, there has been a growing upsurge in cross-cultural calls to decentralize these Studies by encouraging openness to ot…
New ways of belonging in diaspora in Laila Lalami’s The Other Americans
In response to Diaspora criticism's recommendations for listening to underground voices, often eclipsed by the leading diaspora figures, the present paper brings attention to the blossoming literary work of the contemporary Moroccan-American writer Laila Lalami. Her fiction, four full-length novels and short prose so far, is argued to intertwine creatively with the major scholarly turns that have marked diasporic literary criticism since its ince…
The subversive prospect of re-Orientalising Islam in Hafid Bouazza’s Moroccan-Dutch fiction
Re-orientalism is one of the under-researched issues in Cultural Studies. It is usually eclipsed by the upsurge of interest in Diaspora Criticism, which dwells mainly on the significance of human dialogue and cultural reconciliation. The present article aims to explore the re-Orientalist tropes, with a particular focus on the re-Orientalising of Islam, in the literary work of Hafid Bouazza, a Dutch author of Moroccan origin. It seeks to tackle th…
Issues of translator training in tertiary translation courses
Translator training has recently received a plethora of research owing to the increasing significance of translation in a globalised world. While professional training in independent institutions is commonly viewed as the key to effecting favourable responses to the demands of the national and international financial business, university courses of translation remain a valuable arsenal in the service of certified education if subjected to effecti…
The poetics of secular cosmopolitanism
Anouar Majid, a Moroccan diasporic writer in the US, is the author of one novel and five critically acclaimed books on Islam and the West. His latest unfavourable polemics against Islam as well as his seeming detour from the pursuits for diverse stronger religions and cultures to the Universalist ideals of the Founding Fathers are likely to provoke controversies. However, this paper argues that the diasporic ethos of openness and dialogism in his…
Gendered spatial structuring in Moroccan feminist movies
As a popular audio-visual outlet, cinema remains an influential cultural artefact with an ubiquitous potentiality for human spatial mapping, meaning-making and attitudes constructing. Research on the perceptional effects of international cinemas before and during the advance of the internet technologically mediated world is noticeably abundant. The sexist filmic representations of women seem to dot many academic works belonging to media and femin…
‘Whichever way you turn, there is the face of God’ diaspora, memory, and historiography from the margin in The Moor’s Account by Laila Lalami
In The Moor’s Account, Laila Lalami dares to dust off the archive of official history that passed over the testimonies of a Moroccan slave during the Discovery Age. This paper explores the way the slave capitalizes on historiography to reconstruct the Western monolithic history. In so doing, the re-constructor’s memory performs a number of roles. It registers the history of the European conquest of La Florida using micro narrative frameworks that…
Issues of representation and communication in recent translation studies
A lot of work has been done on the major turns that have taken place within Translation Studies. The moves from the prescriptive to the descriptive method of analyzing and conducting translation allow for appropriating the whole process of translation to the service of individual and institutional interests. These changes have been triggered by the juggernaut of globalization and have touched upon the ethics of intercultural communication and rep…
Is patriarchy an Islamic legacy? A reflection on Fatima Mernissi's Dreams of Trespass and Najat El Hachmi's The Last Patriarch
Islamic feminism, no matter how controversial is the term, is a recent cultural discourse that has a good potential of enriching the human cultural diversity and opening up a space for the development of a locally grounded discursive experience within the human studies. After sketching out how this Islamic feminism intervenes in ethnocentrism, in general, and in male's hegemonic culture in the Islamic states, in particular, the focus is narrowed …
Tenacious diasporic homelessness in Moroccan Dutch writing
The highly estimated reception of Abdelkader Benali's debut Wedding by the Sea and Hafid Bouazza's Abdullah's Feet in the mid-1990s is the hyped celebration of multiculturality by the Dutch establishment. Because of attributed to stories' apparent embedment in the native background (Moroccan exotic village), the writers were hailed as successful models for the Dutch multicultural society that was based on the policy of integration (while retainin…
The dislocation of ‘home’ in the writings of Laila Lalami
Laila Lalami was born and raised in Morocco. In 1992, she moved to the USA and got Ph.D. in linguistics from the University of Southern California where she is working for the moment as an associate professor of creative writing. One reason for choosing her literary endeavor as a unit of analysis is the urgent demand in diaspora studies to listen to the invisible underground voices from within marginalized exiles or minor writers who largely make…
