World Literature and Its Times, Volume 6: Middle Eastern Literature and Their Times
The works chosen for inclusion in World Literature and Its Times, Volume 6: Middle Eastern Literatures and Their Times have been carefully selected by the university professors listed in Acknowledgments. Keeping the literature-history connection in mind, the team made its selections based on a combination of factors: how frequently a literary work is studied, how closely it is tied to pivotal events in the past or present, how strong and enduring its appeal has been to readers in and out of the society that produced it, and how well it helps represent the breadth of the four major literatures of the region (Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, and Turkish)
