Trials of Arab Modernity: Literary Affects and the New Political
Tarek El-Ariss
Focusing on the body as a site of rupture and signification, this book shifts the paradigm for the study of modernity in the Arab context from questions of representation, translation, and cultural exchange to an engagement with a genealogy of symptoms and affects embodied in texts from the nineteenth-century onward.
