Preview Feminist Traditions in Andalusi-Moroccan Oral Narratives

Description:
This book introduces seven Andalusi-Moroccan women’s tales, analyzes them from literary theoretical perspectives, and reveals them to be vitally feminist. These tales were collected in Tetouan in northern Morocco and few have ever been translated into English. The protagonists, typically Muslim women, come across as being particularly eloquent and capable of outwitting the men in their lives, who tend to be princes and Sultans. Lebbady delves into the structural and thematic features of the tales and draws parallels to the European courtly love tradition.
