Book Description
This English-Arabic Dictionary of Literary Terms does not only translate more than 3,500 literary terms into Arabic but also sums up most of the literary schools and offers illustrations where illustrations are necessary. Given the rarity of such works in the Arab world since the late 1960s and the complexity of literary terms or critical schools, having a copy of it at home would offer much help.
