Ein leises Geräusch wie ein Gefühl des Sehnens
Dichtung und Zeugenschaft zum faschistischen Konzentrationslager in Libia Coloniale
Abstract
Arabic poetry about the Italian concentration camps in Libia Coloniale is often understood primarily as a historical source, thereby neglecting the poems' literary merits. A Soft Sound, Like a Feeling of Longing approaches these poems from a literary theoretical perspective to revive the narratives of trauma and suffering found in concentration camp literature and the Arabic nomadic poetic tradition and to read them anew within Arabic camp literature.
