CCAS Announces its New Occasional Paper on Mahmoud Darwish

By Mimi Kirk

CCAS is pleased to announce its new Occasional Paper, “Contexts of Language in Mahmoud Darwish,” by Dr. Ibrahim Muhawi of the University of Oregon. The paper, which emerged from Dr. Muhawi’s January 2009 lecture at the Center’s commemoration of the life and work of Mahmoud Darwish, explores three contexts of language in Darwish’s poetry. The first is Darwish’s performative use of language. The second deals with reading Darwish as a resistance poet. The third is Darwish’s death, which Muhawi interprets as part of his language.
