The Impact of The Absurd on Modern Arabic Literature: A Study of the Influence of Camus, Ionesco and Beckett (Theater, Ikhlasi, Hakim, Idris, Mahfuz)

Abstract

dc:description

One of the most problematic issues in Arabic literature has been the opposition between tajd(')id or innovation, and the two principles which have traditionally governed Arabic literature: turath, or heritage, and asala, roots. Tajd(')id has gradually asserted its own as Arabic literature has adopted new genres and opened up new horizons for Arabic writers.
