Description: Palestinian Literature and Film in Postcolonial Feminist Perspective by Anna Ball Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This book explores the varied forms of gender politics that have surfaced in Palestinian literature and film since 1948. Ball investigates the potential of postcolonial feminist theory to illuminate the ways in which Palestinian artists have negotiated the intersections between national and gender politics. Publisher Description Palestinian Literature and Film in Postcolonial Feminist Perspective is the first sustained study of gender-consciousness in the Palestinian creative imagination. Drawing on concepts from postcolonial feminist theory, Ball analyses a range of literary and filmic works by major creative practitioners including Michel Khleifi , Liana Badr, Annemarie Jacir, Elia Suleiman, Mona Hatoum and Suheir Hammad, and reveals a hitherto unrecognized trajectory in gender-consciousness under development in the Palestinian imagination from the start of the twentieth century. The book explores how these works resonate with questions of power, identity, nation, resistance, and self-representation in the Palestinian imagination more broadly, and asks how these gender-conscious narratives transform our understanding of Palestines struggle for postcoloniality. Working at the cusp of postcolonial, feminist and cultural enquiry, Ball seeks to open up vital new directions in the interdisciplinary study of Palestine.
