Poetic Desire and Literary Thievery

Economies of Intertextuality in Arabic Literature

Description

How do we define plagiarism in literature? In this wide-ranging study, Muhsin J. al-Musawi examines debates surrounding literary authenticity across Arabic and Islamic culture over seven centuries. Al-Musawi argues that intertextual borrowing was driven by personal desire alongside the competitive economy of the Abbasid Islamic Empire.
