Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Titre : Chants d'un amant syrien - Songs of a Syrian Lover - أناشيد عاشق سوري Auteur : Clinton Scollard Traducteurs : Hussein I. El-Mudarris & Oussama Shammo (arabe), Maryse Salmon & Olivier Salmon (français) Editeur : Dar al-Mudarris Publication : novembre 2014 Format : 12,7 x 20,3 cm, 124 pages, dessins de Nour Halwany (noir et blanc) Clinton Scollard (1860-1932), auteur américain, effectua plusieurs voyages au Levant qui l’inspirèrent aussi bien pour ses ouvrages en prose, relations de voyages et nouvelles, que pour son œuvre poétique. Le recueil Songs of a Syrian Lover (1912) révèle ce goût pour l’Orient, et s’inscrit plus particulièrement dans le mouvement des English Rubáiyát : les Quatrains d’Omar Khayyâm devenus très populaires grâce à la traduction d’Edward FitzGerald influencèrent en effet de nombreux auteurs. Mais loin des chansons bachiques, les poèmes de Scollard se rapprochent davantage du Cantique des cantiques par la célébration de la bien-aimée et de l’amour sublime qui lui est porté. Le texte en anglais présenté dans cette édition est accompagné d’une traduction française par Maryse Salmon et Olivier Salmon, ainsi que d’une traduction arabe réalisée par Hussein I. El-Mudarris et Oussama Shammo, illustrée des dessins de Nour Halwany.
Download or read book My Syrian Lover written by D. M. Cortese and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-07-08 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hers is the story of how an ordinary middle aged woman is transported from a humdrum existence; morally sedate and sexually naive, to pushing the boundaries of her conscience and experiencing pleasure of a magnitude she had never imagined. Her journey takes her into the realms of illicit love and clandestine liaisons which turn her life upside down and she finds herself dealing with love in it's highest manifestation as well as situations embroiled in secrecy, uncertainty and grief. The cost is the guilt she lives with having an ongoing affair with a married man, the sacrifices she makes; the concealed life she lives and how she compromises her career and, in the end, her security and trust.
Download or read book The Song of Songs written by Ilana Pardes and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2019-08-13 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential history of the greatest love poem ever written The Song of Songs has been embraced for centuries as the ultimate song of love. But the kind of love readers have found in this ancient poem is strikingly varied. Ilana Pardes invites us to explore the dramatic shift from readings of the Song as a poem on divine love to celebrations of its exuberant account of human love. With a refreshingly nuanced approach, she reveals how allegorical and literal interpretations are inextricably intertwined in the Song's tumultuous life. The body in all its aspects—pleasure and pain, even erotic fervor—is key to many allegorical commentaries. And although the literal, sensual Song thrives in modernity, allegory has not disappeared. New modes of allegory have emerged in modern settings, from the literary and the scholarly to the communal. Offering rare insights into the story of this remarkable poem, Pardes traces a diverse line of passionate readers. She looks at Jewish and Christian interpreters of late antiquity who were engaged in disputes over the Song's allegorical meaning, at medieval Hebrew poets who introduced it into the opulent world of courtly banquets, and at kabbalists who used it as a springboard to the celestial spheres. She shows how feminist critics have marveled at the Song's egalitarian representation of courtship, and how it became a song of America for Walt Whitman, Herman Melville, and Toni Morrison. Throughout these explorations of the Song's reception, Pardes highlights the unparalleled beauty of its audacious language of love.

Download or read book Body as Landscape Love as Intoxication written by Brian P. Gault and published by SBL Press. This book was released on 2019-09-13 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore metaphors in the exquisite and enigmatic poetry of Song of Songs One of the chief difficulties in interpreting the Song's lyrics is the unusual imagery used to depict the lovers' bodies. Why is the maiden's hair compared to a flock of goats (4:1), the man’s cheeks likened to garden beds of spice (5:13), and the eyes of both lovers described as doves (4:1; 5:12)? While scholars speculate on the significance of these images, a systematic inquiry into the Song's body metaphors is curiously absent. Based on insights from cognitive linguistics, this study incorporates biblical and comparative data to uncover the meaning of these metaphors surveying literature in the eastern Mediterranean (and beyond) that shares a similar form (poetry) and theme (love). Gault presents an interpretation of the Song's body imagery that sheds light on the perception of beauty in Israel and its relationship to surrounding cultures. Features Exploration of the Song's use of universal themes and culturally specific variations Discussion of the Song's literary structure and unity
Download or read book Music from Aleppo during the Syrian War written by Clara Wenz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aleppo is regarded as one of the historical centres of an urban Arab art music tradition known as 'tarab'. During the war that followed Syria's 2011 political uprisings, vast parts of the city were destroyed. This Element explores how 'tarab' lives on in new contexts. It does so through a focus on the work of Hello Psychaleppo, one of Aleppo's displaced musicians and the pioneer of 'electro-tarab', an eclectic style of urban electronic dance music that is conceived as a homage to Aleppo's musical legacy. Whether local religious chants, Palestinian poetry, or the image of a yellow man, electro-tarab includes an inventory of audio, visual and literary samples. These samples help conceptualise the role music has played during the Syrian war; they offer insights into Aleppo's musical and diasporic afterlife; and they illuminate some of the socio-aesthetic parameters that characterise contemporary Arab electronic music.
Download or read book James Joyce s Painful Case written by Cóilín Owens and published by University Press of Florida. This book was released on 2017-08-22 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An eminently insightful and informative study of a single story, as well as a profound exploration of Joyce's position within his own historical moment and its most urgent philosophical and religious questions."--James Joyce Quarterly "One of the more intellectually capacious, wide-ranging studies on Joyce and his work to emerge in some time. . . . Owens's book is among the finest studies of Dubliners ever written as well as among the best--most provocative, revealing, and useful--critical works on Joyce to be published in some time."--Philological Quarterly "While Owens has captured the breadth of subjects that a casebook would offer, he balances his readings with a great deal of focused and specific close reading. . . . This book is an excellent companion for reading 'A Painful Case' and would be essential reading for anyone engaging in an in-depth study of Dubliners."--James Joyce Literary Supplement "Inspires awe, admiration, and wonder. . . . There is something new for every Joyce student and scholar to learn from Owens's thorough research."--English Literature in Transition, 1880-1920 In order to demonstrate that one story from the Dubliners is not only a turning point in that book but also a microcosm of a wide range of important Joycean influences and preoccupations, Cóilín Owens examines the dense intertextuality of "A Painful Case." Assuming the position of the ideal contemporary Irish reader that Joyce might have anticipated, Owens argues that the main character, James Duffy, is a "spoiled priest," emotionally arrested by his guilt at having rejected the call to the priesthood. Duffy's intellectual life thereafter progresses through German idealism to eventual nihilism. The contrast of nihilist thought and Christian belief is Owens's main focus, and he demonstrates how this dichotomy is evident at various points in the life of James Duffy. From this springboard, Owens constructs a larger discussion of Joyce's cultural influences, including Schopenhauer, Wagner, Tolstoy, and others. He considers many other complex interrelationships that inform Joyce's text--theology, philosophy, music, opera, literary history, Irish cultural history, and Joyce's own poetry--and offers detailed elucidations informed by historical, geographical, linguistic, and biographical information.
Download or read book Translating the Language of the Syrian Revolution 2011 12 written by Eylaf Bader Eddin and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-11-20 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the Arab revolutions have obviously triggered extensive social and political changes, the far-reaching consequences of the cultural and discursive changes have yet to be adequately considered. For activists, researchers and journalists, the revolution was primarily a revolution in language; a break with the linguistic oppression and the rigidity of the old regimes. This break was accompanied by the emergence of new languages, which made it possible to inform, tell and translate the ongoing events and transformations. This language of the revolution was carried out into the world by competing voices from Syria (by local and foreign researchers, activists, and journalists). The core of this project is to find the various translations of the language of the Syrian revolution (2011 -2012) from Arabic to English to study and analyze. In addition, the discursive and non-discursive dimensions of the revolution are to be seen as another act of translation, including the language of the banners, slogans, graffiti, songs and their representation in English. This research aims, in addition to contextualizing the language of the revolution, to demonstrate how this language was translated into English through three levels of translation. The first explores the context of translations from Arabic into English and examines three English books written about Syria. The second level sees translation as an act of importation into the dominant discourse and is exemplified with three books representing the revolutionary language. The third, and last, level looks at translation from the margin to the center, represented by activist translations from Arabic into English. The research tries to study how translations of the language of the Syrian revolution are reshaped after leaving their originating discourse and entering the English one
