America in an Arab Mirror: Images of America in Arabic Travel Literature, 1668 to 9/11 and Beyond

El Kahla Mouna Abdel-Malek Kamal

4.9/5 (12201 ratings)

Description:This distinguished anthology presents for the first time in English travel accounts by Arab writers who have visited America between 1668 and 2009. The view of America which emerges from these accounts is at once fascinating and illuminating, but never monolithic. The writers hail from a variety of viewpoints, regions, and backgrounds, so their descriptions of America differently engage and revise Arab pre-conceptions of Americans and the West. The country figures as everything from the unchanging Other, the very antithesis of the Arab self, to the seductive female, to the Other who is both praiseworthy and reprehensible.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
