Haifa—Sea and Mountain, Arab Past and Jewish Present, as Reflected by Four Writers
Haifa has played no significant political or economic role in the history of Israel, and yet it is special-it is the only major city in Israel located between a sea (the Mediterranean) and a mountain (Mt. Carmel)―and has been a symbol of Jewish-Arab co-existence since the British Mandate of Palestine. The article describes Haifa and its population as reflected by some Hebrew and Arabic prose works whose writers have lived in the city. It focuses on Haifa as a composite of geographically and socially different neighborhoods and on the relations between its Arab and Jewish inhabitants―friendships, conflicts, professional cooperation, and romantic involvement. Hana Wirth-Nesher's model for the study of city novels and Gavriel Zoran's model of time and space in prose works are both brought into play.
