The Author and His Doubles: Essays on Classical Arabic Culture - Middle East Literature In Translation
Abdelfattah Kilito
In this text Kilito argues that genre - not authorship - is at the heart of classic Arabic literature. He examines love poetry and panegyric, the Prophet's Hadith and the literary anecdote, as well as such themes as memorization, plagiarism and forgery and the dream visions of the dead.
