Beschreibung
This book traces the transformations of indigenous identity in Egypt and Australia as depicted by the selected narratives of Mahfouz and Malouf. Despite the great efforts of the postcolonial countries to decolonize their lands from the British military occupation and their success to drive the colonizers outside of their borders, they might not succeed to detach themselves from the impingement of the British metropolitan domination that may extend to encompass the aspects of indigenous identity represented by cultural, social, political and religious creeds. Both novelists, Mahfouz and Malouf, have their own vision related to the impact of the British metropolitan power on the indigenous people due to the differences in the structure of their communities. Thus, this study proves that the British metropolitan power triumphs its victory over Egypt while it fails to fulfill its targets in Australia as depicted in the selected narratives.
