Exilic Consciousness and Diasporic ‘Third Space’ in Susan Abulhawa’s Against the Loveless World
This research proposes a decolonial interpretation of Palestinian diaspora and exile in Susan Abulhawa’s Against the Loveless World (2020). Through its interdisciplinary exploration, this paper raises the question of how diasporic being and exilic consciousness furnish a bodily ‘Third Space’ that encompasses both a scattering (shitat) and focal grassroot resistance. This paper proposes an intersectional analysis and a praxis of decolonizing the b…
She Has The Heart!’ Communicative Strategies of the Linguistic Expressions of Illnesses in Jordanian Arabic and the Effect of Religion in Their Manifestation
This article explores how illnesses are linguistically expressed in Jordanian Arabic (JA). It also investigates the extent to which religion and social norms influence this expression. To this end, we collected authentic data from a number of interactions of JA speakers, particularly within interactive radio and TV programs addressing various life issues, where discussions about illness arise. A total of 834 linguistic expressions of illnesses we…
Colonial Mimicry, Modernist Experimentation, and the Hegelian Dialectics of Empire
The present study offers an analytical nucleus of Joseph Conrad’s polemical novella Heart of Darkness (1899) that weaves and interweaves between Victorianism and Modernism, capturing the zeitgeist of its time. This is particularly punctuated through the way the novella’s characters epitomize Victorian notions of the collective consciousness of British imperialism, along with Conrad’s transcendental experimental style that emblematizes the rudimen…
The Translator as a Colonial Agent
This paper sets out to examine the translation of Tayeb Salih's Season of Migration to the North in light of Narrative theory. In his work, Salih is writing back to the empire as a form of resistance against British Colonialism. The translation seems to tone this resistance down by constructing a narrative that underlines the superiority of the North over the South. The paper attempts to offer a fresh perspective as it explores how the South is r…
Adopting Quranic Classical Literary Translation
The present paper argues that structures of the Holy Quran may be relied on as a source of eloquence, contributing to a more idiomatic and elevated translation of the English classics. Accordingly, the paper identified a number of significant Quranic structures that can be leveraged as a translation strategy. Then, the proposed translation strategy was applied to selected parts of Charlotte Bronte’s 19th-century novel Jane Eyre. To evaluate the e…
A Critical Discourse Analysis of Translators' Narratives Affecting Two Translations of the Same Text
The present study set out to examine the translations of Edward Said's Orientalism in light of narrative theory. The paper uses critical discourse analysis to examine the different narratives produced by two different Arabic translations of Orientalism, written originally in English. The first translation was produced by Kamal Abu Deeb in 1980, and a later one was carried out by Mohammad Enani in 2006. Our findings demonstrate two competing narra…
Ideological Encounters in the BBC Translation of Media Reports on the Conflict in Yemen

It examines the BBC news coverage of the current conflict in Yemen and the translation of media content discussing this conflict. In a globalized world, media becomes a powerful tool to generate and disseminate certain ideologies. Its power has been best manifested in the Arab Spring as social media platforms have played a pivotal role in campaigns to bring down regime…
