CAM6578 An Introduction to Arabic Literature $41.99
Roger Allen, Softcover, 286 pp., In English, ISBN:9780521776578
Roger Allen provides a comprehensive introductory survey of literary texts in Arabic, from their unknown beginnings in the fifth century AD to the present day. It also contains works from Islam's sacred text, the Qur'an, and popular literature including The Arabian Nights and a wealth of poetry, narrative prose, drama and criticism. With extensive quotations translated to English, a chronology and a guide to further reading, this revised and abridged version of Allen's acclaimed study, The Arabic Literary Heritage, provides an invaluable student introduction to a major non-Western literary tradition.

SAQ4369 Modern Arabic Short Stories: A Bilingual Reader $21.95
D. L. Newman, R. Husni, Softcover, 296 pp., ISBN:9780863564369
The twelve stories collected here are by leading authors from Morocco to Iraq. In addition to works by writers already wellknown in the West such as "Idwar alKharrat", "Fuad alTakarli" and Nobel Prizewinning "Naguib Mahfouz", key authors whose fame has as yet been restricted to the Middle East are also included. This bilingual reader is ideal for students of Arabic; the collection features stories in both English and Arabic, prefaced by a brief author biography plus notes on context and background. Each story is followed by a glossary and discussion of problematic language points.
