Yet the region's cultural and intellectual life remains all but unknown to most foreign observers, which means that literary texts that make it into circulation abroad tend to be received as historical documents rather than aesthetic artefacts. Rhetorics of Belonging examines the diverse ways in which Palestinian and Israeli world writers have responded to the expectation that they will 'narrate' the nation, invigorating critical debates about the political and artistic value of national narration as a reading and writing practice. It considers writers whose work is rarely discussed together, offering new readings of the work of Edward Said, Amos Oz, Mourid Barghouti, Orly Castel-Bloom, Sahar Khalifeh, and Anton Shammas. This book helps to restore the category of the nation to contemporary literary criticism by attending to a context where the idea of the nation is so central a part of everyday experience that writers cannot not address it, and readers cannot help but read for it. It also points a way toward a relational literary history of Israel/Palestine, one that would situate Palestinian and Israeli writing in the context of a history of antagonistic interaction. The book's findings are relevant not only for scholars working in postcolonial studies and Israel/Palestine studies, but for anyone interested in the difficult and unpredictable intersections of literature and politics. 410 0$aPostcolonialism across the disciplines ;$v14. 606 $aArab-Israeli conflict$xLiterature and the conflict 606 $aJewish-Arab relations in literature 606 $aIsraeli literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aArabic literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHebrew literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aArab-Israeli conflict$xLiterature and the conflict 607 $aPalestine$xIn literature 610 $aHistory 610 $aAllegory 610 $aArabs 610 $aIsraeli?Palestinian conflict 610 $aIsraelis 610 $aPalestinians 610 $aRhetoric 610 $aState of Palestine 610 $aZionism 615 0$aArab-Israeli conflict$xLiterature and the conflict. 615 0$aJewish-Arab relations in literature. 615 0$aIsraeli literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aArabic literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aHebrew literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aArab-Israeli conflict$xLiterature and the conflict. 676 $a892.409382 700 $aBernard$b Anna$f1979-$01072168 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910140257303321 996 $aRhetorics of Belonging$92568342 997 $aUNINA
