Drawing on both English and Arabic language sources, Berman contends that the fluidity and instability of the term Arab as it appears in captivity narratives, travel narratives, imaginative literature, and ethnic literature simultaneously instantiate and undermine definitions of the American nation and American citizenship. 410 0$aAmerica and the long 19th century. 606 $aAmerican literature$y19th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aNational characteristics, American, in literature 606 $aIslam in literature 606 $aArabs$xRace identity 606 $aNational characteristics, American$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aArabs in literature 615 0$aAmerican literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aNational characteristics, American, in literature. 615 0$aIslam in literature. 615 0$aArabs$xRace identity. 615 0$aNational characteristics, American$xHistory 615 0$aArabs in literature. 676 $a810.9/3529927 700 $aBerman$b Jacob Rama$01725192 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822827603321 996 $aAmerican arabesque$94127914 997 $aUNINA
