Extractions: Naguib Mahfouz is one of the foremost writers in modern Arabic literature. Born in the al-Jamaliyya district of Cairo, Egypt, on December 11, 1911, he lived there until the age of six . He began his writing career at the age of 17. He was a student of philosophy, graduating from the University of Cairo in 1935. He turned away from a university career, working for many years as a civil servant in the Ministries of Religious Affairs and Culture, which posts afforded him time to pursue his writing. He is an avid reader of many of the European and Russian classic writers, including Balzac, Camus, Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Tolstoy and Zola, but above all, Proust. He has written more than 30 novels and many short stories. In 1959, 'Children of Gebelawi' was serialised in the newspaper al-Ahram. The uproar caused by the controversial story meant that it was only many years later that it was brought out in book form. In 1988, Naguib Mahfouz was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. He still lives in Cairo with his wife and daughters.

Many in the Arab world saw the prize as somewhat ironic, not least because the work for which Mahfouz received the prize had been published at least three decades earlier. In spite of millions readers in the Arab world, the author's books are still unavailable in many Middle Eastern countries on account of his support for President Sadat's Camp David peace treaty with Israel in 1978. Mahfouz has written some 40 novels and short story collections, 30 screenplays, and many plays. "Zaabalawi!" he said, frowning in concentration, "You need him? God be with you, for who knows, I Zaabalawi, where you are?"

On the following pages are Larry Luxner's interview with Mahfouz, and Edward Fox's appreciation of his work After I had searched nearly an hour in Cairo's Khan al-Khalili bazaar for the legendary Zuqaq al-Midaq - the eponym of Naguib Mahfouz s most popular novel, Midaa, Alley - a young Egyptian noticed the Mahfouz paperbacks I was carrying and, in near-perfect English, asked me if I really expected to find the famous street. "Lately, many people are looking for Zuqaq al-Midaq,'' he said, "but the real Midaq exists only in their minds." After some polite conversation, however, Muhammad pointed out the tiny winding street that had - since the novel's publication - come to be known as Zuqaq al-Midaq. Once inside the narrow passage where Mahfouz used to walk daily, I spotted many shopkeepers who could easily have passed for Abbas the barber, Uncle Kamil the candy-seller, Kirsha the cafe-owner and other inhabitants of Mahfouz's fictional alley. The alley is in the heart of the ancient Jamaliyya quarter of Cairo, where Mahfouz was born and spent his childhood and where much of his best work is set. His attachment to the quarter is still strong, decades after leaving it for the suburbs, but at 77he laments that he is not able to visit it as often as he used to. The great boulevardier has cut down on the long walks for which he was famous; now he goes mainly to the Ali Baba Cafe on Thursday nights, often in a car, to see his old friends. Last December, the writer's frail health prevented him from traveling to Stockholm to receive personally the 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature: His two daughters accepted the award in his name.

http://www.boston.com/globe/search/stories/nobel/1994/1994y.html

Extractions: When the Egyptian novelist Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in 1988, his work had an audience of millions of readers, almost none of them in America. Since the prize, however, Doubleday has published 16 of Mahfouz's books in English translation still only a fraction of his output, since he has written nearly 50 books. The "Cairo Trilogy," the early novels that established Mahfouz's reputation, won loyal readers here and sold more than 250,000 copies. The trilogy was a meticulous depiction of a specific place and time; it was written on the models of the major English, French and Russian novels of the 19th century. But it was in no sense a derivative work; what was original about it was the myth, mystery and immemorial history that informed the unfolding account of daily events. In a way, "The Harafish," now translated for the first time, is a complement to the "Cairo Trilogy," or the "Cairo Trilogy" turned inside out. It too is a novel about generations of a family living in an alley in an unspecified city, presumably Cairo. But this time there is none of the

Extractions: HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL Born in Cairo in 1911, Naguib Mahfouz began writing when he was seventeen. His first novel was published in 1939 and ten more were written before the Egyptian Revolution of July 1952, when he stopped writing for several years. One novel was republished in 1953, however, and the appearance of the Cairo Triology, Bayn al Qasrayn, Qasr al Shawq, Sukkariya (Between-the-Palaces, Palace of Longing, Sugarhouse) in 1957 made him famous throughout the Arab world as a depictor of traditional urban life. With The Children of Gebelawi (1959), he began writing again, in a new vein that frequently concealed political judgements under allegory and symbolism. Works of this second period include the novels, The Thief and the Dogs Autumn Quail Small Talk on the Nile (1966), and Miramar (1967), as well as several collections of short stories. Until 1972, Mahfouz was employed as a civil servant, first in the Ministry of Mortmain Endowments, then as Director of Censorship in the Bureau of Art, as Director of the Foundation for the Support of the Cinema, and, finally, as consultant on Cultural Affairs to the Ministry of Culture. The years since his retirement from the Egyptian bureaucracy have seen an outburst of further creativity, much of it experimental. He is now the author of no fewer than thirty novels, more than a hundred short stories, and more than two hundred articles. Half of his novels have been made into films which have circulated throughout the Arabic-speaking world. In Egypt, each new publication is regarded as a major cultural event and his name is inevitably among the first mentioned in any literary discussion from Gibraltar to the Gulf.

A review of Rasheed ElEnany's book naguib mahfouz The Pursuit of Meaning.
http://www.stanford.edu/group/SHR/5-1/text/colla.html

Extractions: Updated 8 February 1996 book review Rasheed El-Enany, Naguib Mahfouz: The Pursuit of Meaning (New York: Routledge, 1993). Elliott Colla In this study of Naguib Mahfouz's literary corpus, Rasheed El-Enany argues that Mahfouz is the Arab world's most important novelist not simply because of the influence of his novels of the 1950s and 1960s, but also because his later novels, relatively ignored by contemporary critics, have continued to develop the Arabic novel in equally exciting ways. In other words, he asserts that Mahfouz's relevance and standing are not due simply to the works he produced fifty, forty, or even twenty-five years ago, but rather to the fact that the Nobel author has continued to press forward, pulling Arabic literature in his wake. To support this, El-Enany gives an overview of Naguib Mahfouz's oeuvre, from his earliest "historical romances" to his realist, naturalist, and modernist novels. El-Enany then goes on to make the convincing claim that Mahfouz's novels from the 1970s onward represent a return to forms drawn from classical Arabic literature. The strength of this book is that El-Enany has assembled a thoughtful overview of Mahfouz's novels, including within it many books that have usually not been the focus of critical studies. Moreover, he is careful to avoid repeating readings: when El-Enany deals with works that have received considerable critical attention, he defers to previous studies of those works, thus freeing himself to concentrate on Mahfouz's more recent production. The result is that El-Enany manages to sketch a smooth narrative of the career of the Egyptian novelist, one that starts with the early works (of the 1940s), hits its stride with

Dec. 11, 1911, Cairo, Egypt), Egyptian novelist and screenplay writer who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1988, the first Arabic writer to be so honoured. The son of a civil servant, Mahfouz attended Cairo University and worked in the cultural section of the Egyptian civil service from 1934 until his retirement in 1971. His early novels, such as Radubis (1943; "Radobis"), were set in ancient Egypt, but he had turned to describing modern Egyptian society by the time he began his major work, Al- Thulathiyya (1956-57), known as The Cairo Trilogy. Its three novels depict the lives of three generations of different families in Cairo from World War I until after the 1952 military coup that overthrew King Farouk. The trilogy provides a penetrating overview of 20th-century Egyptian thought, attitudes, and social change. In subsequent works Mahfouz offered critical views of the old Egyptian monarchy, British colonialism, and contemporary Egypt. Several of his more notable novels deal with social issues involving women and political prisoners. His novel Awlad haratina Children of the Alley ) was banned in Egypt for a time because of its controversial treatment of religion and its use of characters based on Muhammad, Moses, and other figures. His other better-known novels include
