View through CrossRef
This chapter explores a new form of poetic autobiography by Palestinian poets Mahmoud Darwish and Mourid Barghouti. The chapter explores the relationship of the poets to Palestine and its effects on autobiographical form in Darwish’s Memory for Forgetfulness, his 1986 memoir of the Israeli siege of Beirut, and Mural, his 1999 autobiographical epic focusing on mortality and Palestine. Barghouti’s memoirs I Saw Ramallah and I Was Born There, I Was Born Here explore the poet’s return to Palestine. Darwish and Barghouti rework the genre to explore the life of the poet in relation to Palestine and the tension between the poet’s solitude and his public role.
