Any suggestions for #WorldLit and translated short stories that can be used to teach English language learners? I was surprised by how hard it is to find anything other than folklore...

@wwborders As an interesting caveat: @Inalco Professor Mélanie Bourlet shows that not all #Mauritanian literatures seek a global audience in this article for @MULOSIGE : https://t.co/A4tkSAfTU8

Nearly three years later, @JulyBlalack reflects on the increased regional and international recognition of Mauritanian stories- including this year's film @TheMauritanian- for @wwborders https://t.co/SisgOBycyJ

Congratulations to our own July Blalack, whose work on novels in Mauritania is featured in The Oxford Handbook of Arab Novelistic Traditions (Oxford University Press).

An important resource for anyone working in Arab literature!

The Tamazight tales and Rouicha's songs were transcribed and translated by Abdessamad Binaoui, and Jack Clift proofread all of the translations.

[Itzea @ItzeaMunduan]

This has been a great project, with many people involved. The Middle Atlas strand was coordinated by Lhoussain Simour (Hassan II Univ. of Casablanca) and the Riffian one by Mohamed Daoudi (Hassan II Univ. of Casablanca), who is also the translator of the Riffian corpus.

[Itzea @ItzeaMunduan]

Take a look at the Amazigh lit in translation archive! You can listen to tales from the Moroccan Middle Atlas told by Fadma Tainsirt (and read them in translation) and read poems by Riffian authors such as Fadma El Ouariachi... https://t.co/3uiCXoV6ax @MULOSIGE

[July جولاي @JulyBlalack]

@MULOSIGE You can listen to the tales, read the original in Tamazight and read the English translation: https://t.co/O3rqhdGbVM
