24.01.2008 - Interpretation von dali48 

Naguib Mahfouz (1911 - 2006), Egyptian writer who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1988, was the first Arabic writer to be so honoured... (book & writers)

In spite of millions of 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... - "Such are saints or they would not be saints," he said laughing. "Do those who need him suffer as I do?" "Such suffering is part of the cure!"... (from Zaabalawi, 1965)

The book (The Children of Gebelaawi, 1959) was banned throughout the Arab world, except in the Lebanon... - In the 1960s, Mahfouz further developed its theme that humanity is moving further away from God in his existentialist novels... - Like many Egyptian writers and intellectuals, Mahfouz was on a "death list" by Islamic fundamentalists... - He defended Salman Rushdie after the Iranian spiritual leader Ayatollah R. Khomeini condemned him to death - but later he criticized Rushdie's Satanic Verses as "insulting" to Islam... - It is notable that when the author on turns to social and contemporary issues - something of his early belief in fate, destiny, dispensation or providence remains... - People in his novels are often - like reeds in the wind, almost powerless in the face of circumstances and chance... - Mothers and other women constitute - a secret net of devotion, passion, and care - that holds the chaotic world of men together. The author's sympathy is with the oppressed and the miserable, with the weak and the loving... - As regards freedom of expression, I have said that it must be considered sacred and that thought can only be corrected by counter-thought... (Al-Ahram, 2 March, 1989)

Naguib Mahfouz (IPA: [næˈɡiːb mɑħˈfuːzˤ]; 1911 – 2006) was an Egyptian writer who won the 1988 Nobel Prize for Literature. He is regarded as one of the first contemporary writers of Arabic literature, along with Tawfiq el-Hakim, to explore themes of existentialism... - He published 34 novels, over 350 short stories, dozens of movie scripts, and five plays over a 70-year career. Many of his works have been made into Egyptian and foreign films... - Prior to his death, Mahfouz was the oldest living Nobel Literature laureate and the third oldest of all time, trailing only Bertrand Russell and Halldor Laxness... - At the time of his death, he was the only Arabic-language writer to have won the Nobel Prize. In July 2006, Mahfouz sustained an injury to his head as a result of a fall. He remained ill until his death on 30 August 2006 in a Cairo hospital... - In his old age, he became nearly blind, and though he continued to write, he had difficulties in holding a pen or a pencil. Prior to his death, he suffered from a bleeding ulcer, kidney problems, and cardiac failure... - He was accorded a state funeral with full military honors on 31 August 2006. His funeral took place in the Al-Rashdan Mosque in Nasr City in Cairo... - His written works covered a broad range of topics, including socialism, homosexuality, and "God".
