Translation

The book “Literary Battles” by a prominent Egyptian thinker and writer, Anwar El-Gendy, presents intense discussions and theses between Arab thinkers and intellectuals on issues of literature, language, culture, and Arab nationalism. The book deals with an intellectual debate between conservatives and modernists over the concepts of literature, culture, and the Arabic language, and discusses intellectual battles between figures such as Al-Akkad, Zaki Mubarak, and Taha Hussein over issues such as Arab nationalism, the Arabic language, translation, and open literature.
