Public ISBD Titre : A daughter of isis: The Autobiography of Nawal El Saadawi Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nawal el- Saadawi (1931-...), Auteur ; Sherif Hetata, Traducteur Editeur : Londres [Grande-Bretagne] : Zed Books Ltd Année de publication : 1999 Importance : 294p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-85649-680-3 Prix : 25€ Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Arabe (ara) Catégories : Egypte Militantisme Résumé : "Nawal El Saadawi has been pilloried, censored, imprisoned and exiled for her refusal to accept the oppressions imposed on women by gender and class. For her, writing and action have been inseperable and this is reflected in some of the most evocative and disturbing novels ever written about Arab women. Born in a small Egyptian village in 1931, she eluded the grasp of suitors before whom her family displayed her when she was still ten years old and went on to qualify as a medical doctor. In 1969, she published her first work of non-fiction, Women and Sex; in 1972, she was dismissed from her profession because of her political activism. From then on there was no respite: imprisonment under Sadat in 1981 was the culmination of the long struggle she had waged for Egyptian women's social and intellectual freedom; in 1992, her name appeared on a death list issued by a fundamentalist group after which she went into exile for five years. Since then, she has devoted her time to writing novels and essays and to her activities as a worldwide speaker on women’s issues. A Daughter of Isis is the autobiography of this extraordinary woman. In it she paints a sensuously textured portrait of the childhood that produced the freedom fighter. We see how she moulded her own creative power into a weapon - how, from an early age, the use of words became an act of rebellion against injustice." couv4.

Walking through fire: a life of Nawal El Saadawi / Nawal el- Saadawi  

Public ISBD Titre : Walking through fire: a life of Nawal El Saadawi Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Nawal el- Saadawi (1931-...), Auteur ; Sherif Hetata, Traducteur Editeur : David Philip Année de publication : 2002 Importance : 251p. ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-1-84277-077-1 Prix : 16€ Langues : Anglais (eng) Langues originales : Arabe (ara) Catégories : Egypte Militantisme Résumé : "In A Daughter of Isis , Nawal El Saadawi painted a beautifully textured portrait of the childhood that moulded her into a novelist and fearless campaigner for freedom and the rights of women. Walking through Fire takes up the story of her extraordinary life. Famous for her novels, short stories and writings on women, Saadawi is known as the first Arab woman to have written about sex and its relation to economics and politics. Imprisoned under Sadat for her opinions, she has continued to fight against all forms of discrimination based on class, gender, nationality, race or religion. This autobiography shows the passion for justice that has shaped her life and her writing. We read about her as a rural doctor, trying to help a young girl escape from a terrible fate imposed on her by a brutal male tyranny. We follow her attempts to set up women's organizations and to publish magazines later banned by the authorities or endangered by fundamentalist threats. We travel with her into exile after the publication of her name on a death list. We witness her first marriage to a freedom fighter hounded into drug addiction by a system that has no mercy. We share her struggle against her 'false self' and a second husband who offers her financial security and comfort - provided she stops writing. We live the beautiful moments of her third marriage with a man released after fourteen years of imprisonment and hard labour - their love, companionship and shared struggle. Nawal El Saadawi has carved a place for herself in the universal struggle against oppression. 'Words should not seek to please, to hide the wounds in our bodies, or the shameful moments in our lives', she says. 'They may hurt, give us pain, but they can also provoke us to question what we have accepted for thousands of years." couv4.
