Full Description

Arabic Literature and Social Media sheds light on the impact of social media on contemporary Arabic literature in terms of content, form/structure, and language. Eman Younis charts new territory, investigating the diversity of instances that represent Arabic literature in social media. Rooted in an Arabic context, this study explains the implication of literary developments for Arabic speakers, while at the same time making connections to global publics. Younis discusses the wide range of texts and media that constitute Arabic literature in social media, detailing emerging genres and linguistic features. This is the first book to comprehensively examine the changes occurring within literary genres in their transition from print publication to publication on social media. With a background in linguistics and literary theory, the author's analysis is balanced and relevant for discussions in a changing landscape of literature, technology, and society.
