Beschreibung

A groundbreaking survey of the language used around queerness in the Arab world, with contributions by leading Arab queer writers, thinkers and activists, <i>The Queer Arab Glossary</i> is a first-of-its-kind survey<br>of the linguistic landscape surrounding queerness in the Arab world. It brings<br>together more than 300 words and terms used to refer to queer people across the<br>spoken Arabic dialects, ranging from the humorous to the harrowing, serious to<br>tongue-in-cheek, pejorative to endearing. Featuring anecdotes and fascinating historical facts, the<br>bilingual glossary paints a linguistic picture of how queer bodies are<br>perceived within the Arab region. It includes insightful essays by eight<br>leading Arab queer artists, academics, activists and writers, which situate the<br>glossary in a modern social and political context. With beautiful, witty illustrations by Haitham Haddad, <i>The<br>Queer Arab Glossary</i> is a powerful response to myths about queer people in<br>the Arab world. It is proof that the LGBTQI+ Arab community is alive and<br>thriving.
