"Prose Peddlers: Tarjamah Subjects and Immigrant Struggles in Brazil" analyzes the diverse cultural production of Syrian and Lebanese immigrants in Brazil. It engages a number of interstitial figures that circulate through immigrants' twentieth-century bilingual prose genres, arguing that each embodies key immigrant identity struggles. Figures such as the nomadic peddler, the rooted plantation worker, the transnational Arab, the cosmopolitan effendi, the modern housewife, the female political activist, and the nauseated immigrant, which are produced at the intersections of local and transnational discourses of gender, race, and modernity, actively contest the unity of hegemonic national identities in Brazil. This dissertation refers to figures like these as tarjamah subjects, using an Arabic word that can mean both to translate and to write an autobiography to point to the intersections between cultural theories of translation and postcolonial processes of subject formation.
