The Question of Resistance Literature Theory with Reference to the Palestinian Example
Description
The article argues that Resistance Literature as a genre of written texts should be studied within a critical theory that reserves the ultimate message beyond such texts, which is supporting colonized people like the Palestinians. Barbara Harlow’s book Resistance Literature (1987) introduces such a theory, but it has not progressed in the literary theory canon; thus, the article aims to be part of the development of this theory in terms of exhibiting the interplay between theory and literature within the controversial discourse of Resistance Literature.
