Summary
"This book proposes an alternative analysis of 19th century literary production as an arduous reckoning with modern political sovereignty. It argues that the canon of 19th century Arabic literature is forged through an urgency to see and define a new form of political sovereignty, and to adjudicate in light of that definition the best forms for its praxis"-- Provided by publisher
