This well-prepared anthology represents a unique contribution to the study of world drama and modern Middle Eastern culture. Playwrights include Yusuf al-'Ani, 'Abd al-'Aziz al-Surayii', the Balalin Company of Jerusalem, 'Izz al-Din al-Madani, Mahmud Diyab, Alfred Farag, Walid Ikhlasi, 'Isam Mahfuz, Salah 'Abd al-Sabur, 'Ali Salim, Mamduh 'Udwan, and Sa'dallah Wannus. | ||
