Now known for her bold spirit and probing mind, El Saadawi in this novel uncovers through a child's eyes the hypocritical values and traditions carried on by family, education, religion, and society. With amazing courage she weaves a tale of the fear, guilt, and repressive compliance forced upon her as a woman and upon her generation as the price to be paid for leading a civilized existence. Struggling to come to terms with taboos concerning her maturing body, the young Nawal's writing reveals the makings of a revolutionary spirit and relentlessly analytical mind. A must read for devotees of El Saadawi's writing to witness an early record of the maturing of her thoughts and the shaping of her ideas.Giants of Contemporary Arab LiteratureMiddle Eastern literatureEthnologyMiddle EastCultureFictionSexSociologySocial groupsMiddle Eastern LiteratureMiddle Eastern CultureFiction LiteratureGender StudiesSociology of Family, Youth and AgingMiddle Eastern literature.EthnologyCulture.Fiction.Sex.Sociology.Social groups.Middle Eastern Literature.Middle Eastern Culture.Fiction Literature.Gender Studies.Sociology of Family, Youth and Aging.892.7/36El Saadawi Nawalauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1058451Amīn UmnīyahPalfreyman David1964-BOOK9910255235103321Diary of a Child Called Souad2499978UNINA04077nam 22007575 450 991029837140332120200704174101.094-017-9140-610.1007/978-94-017-9140-3(CKB)3710000000249142(EBL)1966777(OCoLC)893678407(SSID)ssj0001353916(PQKBManifestationID)11779895(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001353916(PQKBWorkID)11322361(PQKB)10022282(MiAaPQ)EBC1966777(DE-He213)978-94-017-9140-3(PPN)181347350(EXLCZ)99371000000024914220140922d2014 u| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrMediterranean Urbanism Historic Urban / Building Rules and Processes /by Besim S. Hakim1st ed. 2014.Dordrecht :Springer Netherlands :Imprint: Springer,2014.1 online resource (249 p.)Description based upon print version of record.94-017-9139-2 Includes bibliographical references and index at the end of each chapters.Introduction -- Greece: Sources from 2nd Century B.C.E. to 19th Century C.E. -- Italy: Sources from 10th to 14th Centuries C.E. -- Spain: Sources from 5th to 18th Centuries C.E. -- Conclusions.This book brings together historic urban / building rules and codes for the geographic areas including Greece, Italy, and Spain. The author achieved his ambitious goal of finding pertinent rules and codes that were followed in previous societies for the processes that formed the built environment of their towns and cities, including building activities at the neighborhood level and the decision-making process that took place between proximate neighbors. The original languages of the texts that were translated into English are Greek, Latin, Italian, Arabic, and Spanish. The sources for the chapter on Greece date from the 2nd century B.C.E. to the 19th century C.E. Those for the chapter on Italy date from the 10th to the 14th centuries C.E., and for the chapter on Spain from the 5th to the 18th centuries C.E. Numerous appendices are included to enhance and elaborate on the material that make up the chapters. This book provides lessons and insights into how compact and sustainable towns and cities that are greatly admired today were achieved in the past, and how we and future generations can learn from this rich heritage, including the valuable insight provided by the nature of the rules and codes and their application through centuries of continuous use.Regional planningCity planningCity planningArchitectureLandscape architectureLandscape/Regional and Urban Planninghttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J15000Urbanismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K18006Cities, Countries, Regionshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K14000Landscape Architecturehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/K16003Mediterranean RegionHistoryMediterranean RegionfastHistory.fastRegional planning.City planning.City planning.Architecture.Landscape architecture.Landscape/Regional and Urban Planning.Urbanism.Cities, Countries, Regions.Landscape Architecture.710711.4720910Hakim Besim Sauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1065253BOOK9910298371403321Mediterranean Urbanism2544149UNINA
