SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This dissertation offers a critical study of the stages of Arab American identity expressed through the concept of exile and hybridity seen at work in the Arab American literary tradition before 9/11 and after. I am using both postcolonial and feminist theoretical approaches in my research. As postcolonial survivors and mostly women, Arab American authors wrote about being marginalized and alienated in the American culture. They also examined the indelible influence that living in the American peripheries left on constructing their identities. My focus is on hybridity as one of the major stages of the Arab American identity formation process. I am using Homi Bhabha's theory of 'Hybridity' to explain its influence in constructing an Arab American identity.
