Intimate selving in Arab families
Bundel essays over hoe de persoonlijkheid van individuen gevormd wordt binnen familieverhoudingen in het Midden-Oosten, vanuit (auto)biografisch etnografisch en literair perspectief. De auteurs kijken naar de culturele factoren die de persoonlijkheidsontwikkeling bepalen en proberen daarbij de Westerse theorieën kritisch te bekijken.
