Streifzüge durch Bibel und Koran
by Sibylle Lewitscharoff, Najem Wali, Christine Battermann
Eine hochdramatische Szene: Der Vater beugt sich über den wehrlosen Jungen, das Messer blitzt in seiner Hand – da befiehlt ihm im letzten Moment ein Engel, statt des eigenen Sohnes einen Widder zu opfern. Die Geschichte von Abraham und Isaak ist bekannt. Dass sie dem Philosophen Kierkegaard eine schlaflose Nacht am Berliner Gendarmenmarkt bescherte, in deren Verlauf ihm eine göttliche Maus erschien, um Fragen der Barmherzigkeit zu erörtern – das weiß nur Sibylle Lewitscharoff. Was wiederum der Koran aus diesem Stoff macht, davon erzählt uns Najem Wali. Von Eva bis Maria, von Moses bis Satan: Neun Figuren aus Bibel und Koran haben die sprachmächtige Religionswissenschaftlerin Sibylle Lewitscharoff und der irakisch-deutsche Autor Najem Wali ausgewählt. Deren Geschichten gehen die beiden aus ihrer je eigenen Sicht nach, temperamentvoll, engagiert, auch augenzwinkernd. Mit dem geplagten Hiob fragen sie nach der göttlichen Gerechtigkeit, mit Jona, dem ängstlichen Wal-Reisenden, nach Mut und Toleranz und berühren mit ihrem Dialog zwischen den Weltreligionen die Krisen unserer Zeit.

Biography & True StoriesJanuary 2014Beyond Writing
by Ibrahim Abdelmeguid
One of Egypt’s leading literary voices offers a first-hand look at political, social, cultural events of the last 40 years and how they influenced his writing. Ibrahim Abdelmeguid, called “the quintessential writer about Alexandria” by The National newspaper, looks back over his decades-long writing career this book, which what he calls a “literary autobiography.” In it, he reflects on the social, political, and cultural influences in Egypt and elsewhere that have shaped him as a writer. He shares his views on major political events, such as the 1967 defeat after the Six-Day War, and explanations of their profound impact on his personal life and works of fiction. Abdelmeguid devotes a portion of his work to discussing the development of his views on Egypt’s second president, Gamal Abdel Nasser, over the course of his turbulent tenure in office. The book is divided into a brief introduction and four chapters. Abdelmeguid guides the reader through his literary career, moving masterfully between the factual and the meditative. He explores how each of his novels and many of his short stories was conceived. He also describes cultural, political, and social contexts in which his writing evolved and was received by literary critics and casual readers. He spends considerable time describing the creative process behind his Alexandria trilogy— No One Sleeps in Alexandria, Birds of Amber, and Clouds Over Alexandria. The first book, No One Sleeps in Alexandria, is set during World War II. Abdelmeguid visited numerous key sites in Alexandria and surrounding areas and read every newspaper he could get his hands on. The result of his devotion to research is a vibrant portrayal of Alexandria that shines throughout the epic novel. Of particular note is his successful communication of the cultural and religious diversity of the city and the impact of that on the promotion of a culture of tolerance. Beyond Writing is a rare and important addition to the modern Arabic literary map. Few Arab authors are willing to so transparently share their writing process, preferring to highlight the polished final product while concealing the hard work that brought it into existence. Readers are lucky that it is a writer as prominent, thoughtful, and engaging as Abdelmeguid is willing to draw back the curtain.
