Woman'S Voice And Body Are Closely Entwined In The Araboislamic Tradition, Argues Fedwa Maltidouglas In This Pioneering Book. Spanning The Ninth Through Twentieth Centuries And Covering A Wide Range Of Textsfrom Courtly Anecdote To Mystical And Philosophical Treatises, From Works Of Geography To Autobiographythis Study Reveals How Woman'S Access To Literary Speech Has Remained Mediated Through Her Body. Maltidouglas First Analyzes Classical Texts (Both Wellknown Works Like The Thousand And One Nights And Others Still Ignored In The West) In Which The Female Voice, Often Associated With Wit Or Trickery Of A Sexual Nature, Is Subordinated To The Male Scriptor. Showing How Early Araboislamic Discourse Continues To Influence Contemporary Arabic Writing, She Maintains That Today Feminist Writers Of Novels, Short Stories, And Autobiography Must Work Through This Tradition, Even If They Subvert Or Reject It In The End. Whereas Woman In The Classical Period Speaks Through The Body, Woman In The Modern Period Often Turns Corporeality Into A Literary Weapon To Achieve Power Over Discourse.
