| Summary: | Post-colonial theory recognizes that European and American scholars have traditionally defined the themes that are of interest in literary criticism. In Moroccan studies, these themes have tended toward questions of migration, identity, secularism and religious fanaticism-typically questions regarding Morocco in its relationships with colonizing nations. This book intends to redefine the themes of interest in Moroccan studies, looking toward more local themes and movements and relationships of sub-cultures and languages within Morocco. Questions in this volume regard concepts of the self, conflicting discourses, intersections of self-identity and community and Moroccan reclamation of identity in the post-colonial sphere. |
