Journal Article
IN SEARCH OF ANDALUSIA: RECONFIGURING ARABNESS IN DIANA ABU-JABER'S CRESCENT
2008
Overview
Gana examines the representation of al-Andalus in the modern Arab literary imagination in general and more particularly in Crescent, by the Arab American author Diana Abu-Jaber. Drawing upon the critical vocabulary of Edward Said, he critiques the political agendas underlying the modern construction of an Iberian convivencia, and especially those informing its outright rejection in the late 20th and early 21st century. He also refers to William Granara's notion of the Andalusian chronotype and its significance in modern Arabic literature to guide the reader curious about why there are so many overt references and covert allusions to al-Andalus and Andalusis in many works of modern fiction.
