Poems and revolutionary movements in the Arab world Play

Poems and revolutionary movements in the Arab world

Publicado el 14 de abril 2021
Fourteenth conference in the program Aula Árabe Universitaria II, to be given by Francesca Corrao, a professor of Arabic language and culture (Luiss University of Rome). The event will be held on April 19, live on YouTube. After colonial rule, Arabs faced a season of hope, but other regional crises soon arose. The disillusionment of avant-garde Arab intellectuals caused by the Arab armies’ disappointing performance in the Six-Day War was subsequently worsened by the repressive policies of Arab governments. As a result, avant-garde poets gradually distanced themselves from their initial enthusiasm for the political achievements of their leaders and turned their attention back to the dramatic realities of their populations. The poets’ metaphors expressed the desires of the people. By doing this, and as a result of efforts by intellectuals, despite decades of repression and censorship, cultural debate kept young Arabs’ aspiration to see their rights and freedoms respected alive in their hearts. Thus, an echo of the revolts, filled with the hope that stirred Arab youth in 2011, still lingers in literature. In many Arab countries, when the uprisings turned into the tragedy of counter-revolution in the form of a savage wave of repression leading to civil wars, poets lent their voices once again to expressing disillusionments. This conference on “Poems and revolutionary movements in the Arab world” by Francesca Corrao, a professor of Arabic Language and Culture at Luiss University in Rome, will provide a few examples of poems which describe the unfolding of events and the heartbreak and pain over the loss of loved ones and places, in an attempt to inspire hope even where it was, and still is, difficult to imagine a better future. Casa Árabe has organized this fourteenth session in the event series Aula Árabe Universitaria 2 (AAU2), with the cooperation of the bachelor’s degree program in Semitic and Islamic Studies at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM). The session will be introduced by Victoria Khraiche Ruiz-Zorrilla, an associate professor of Arabic Language and Literature at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), and will be moderated by Nuria Medina, Casa Árabe’s Coordinator of Cultural Programs Francesca Maria Corrao Francesca Maria Corrao is a tenured professor of Arabic Culture and Language at Luiss University of Rome’s School of Political Science, the director of the MISLAM Program (Master in Islamic Countries’ Economics and Institutions) at the same university’s School of Government.

    II Foro Elcano sobre Terrorismo Global II. Islamic State against Al Qaeda Shifting allegiances

    In its 2nd edition, the Elcano Forum reviewed the recent transformations undergone by global terrorism. The latest developments in international Jihadism, dominated by the emergence of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) –currently the self-styled Islamic State (IS)– as an alternative and rival nucleus, and the establishment of the Caliphate in Iraqi territory last June, make it necessary to reflect not only about the changes in the phenomenon itself but also to its implications for the Western Mediterranean. Thus, the forum analyzed both the threat these changes pose for the various countries in the Maghreb-Sahel region and in Europe, given their renewed capacity for mobilisation, and the strategies, policies and measures adopted to counter it. The second panel was chaired by Fernando Reinares, Senior Analyst on Global Terrorism at Elcano Royal Institute. Participation: - Guido Steinberg, Senior Associate, Middle East and Africa Division, Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik (SWP), Berlin; with a presentation tittled, "The struggle for the soul of the Jihadist movement: Islamic State against al-Qaeda" and - Tricia Bacon, Lecturer, Department of Justice, Law and Criminology, American University Washington DC with a presentation tittled, "Shifting Allegiances: the direction of relations among Sunni militant groups"
