Goli Taraqqi's narratives of displacement and emigration are approached through a theoretical lens that foregrounds the significance of space and the role of retrospective self-narration in acts of cultural representation. Ghardashkhani studies Taraqqi's autobiographical narratives with an emphasis on the unstable meanings of homeland and Farang (a culturally constructed term signifying the West) and, thereby, accounts for Taraqqi's ironical style of narration in her memories of homeland recollected in exile.Iran studies ;Volume 17.Identity (Philosophical concept) in literatureSpace in literatureIdentity (Philosophical concept) in literature.Space in literature.191Ghardashkhani Goulia1689798MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910813977903321Another place4065119UNINA
