We Are Imazighen: The Development of Algerian Berber Identity in Twentieth-Century Literature and Culture by Fazia Aïtel (review)

Abstract

interpretations of individual poems fresh, provocative, and nuanced. The concluding chapter, for example, argues for the importance of female literary networks in a twenty-first-century context. The chapter traces the literary legacy of each writer, as Kennedy describes the varying anthologies and collections in which each writer is included—history textbooks and women’s art collections, to name only two. The book concludes by restating the call to consider women writers in the context of a literary network, even if these women were unable to enjoy the travel and educational opportunities in which male writers in similar networks participated.
