Title of the speech - Georgia as a cultural source for Arab writers - Moroccan imaginary as model
By focusing on the Moroccan imaginary, keeping in mind the impact of translation as the sole tool of communication between the Arab writers and Georgian culture, Dr. Fatiha Taib will try to expand two questions:
- Has Georgia become a cultural source for Arab writers, in the context of their Postcolonial perspectives towards cultural paradigms?
- What space do Georgia and its culture occupy, among universal cultures, in the Arab imaginary in general?
