Extractions: The History and Culture of Yemen The following is a short list of books that the staff of the Yemen Language Center recommends for further reading. We will add to this list as we find more useful information, including journal and periodical entries. We welcome recommendations from our visitors. Understanding Arabs, (Margaret Nydell): A short but very useful introduction to cultural expectations that Arabs and foreigners have of each other and suggestions for dealing with these expectations. This book can be found in most major libraries and in some bookstores. Islam (Frederick Denny): This is a very brief primer on Islam. Sana'a, An Arabian Islamic City, (World of Islam Festival Trust): This encyclopedic collection of very detailed information on Sanani Yemeni customs is very rare. Only 2,000 copies are known to exists, but if you live near a large library, you might look it up. Tribes, Government and History in Yemen, (Paul Dresch): This book describes the tribal customs and politics in great detail. It is most relevant to northern half of Yemen, but interesting reading for those who plan on hiking in the mountains of Yemen (which I highly recommend).

Extractions: Yemen may be one of the poorest countries in the Middle East. But its tradition of spoken verse represents a rich cultural heritage. For centuries, oral poetry has offered a socially acceptable way for men and women to solve problems, manage conflicts, and communicate feelings of sorrow, happiness, and worry, according to Najwa Adra, a New York-based anthropologist. "There is a huge respect for [the spoken word] in Arab culture," said Adra. "If something is written, it's suspect; whereas if it's remembered, it's valued." Read the full

E-Mail YEMEN One of the best kept secrets of the Middle East At the crossroads of spice and incense routes, Yemen is one of the oldest continuously inhabited regions in the world that has not touched the winds of modernity with its colorful history that dates back to primeval times. Yet Yemen remains a medieval land and modernist fantasy to be discovered. This fascinating country stretching from the shores of the Red Sea to beyond the shores of the Arabian Sea is extraordinarily rich in historical sites. These ancient sites are refreshingly free of commercial ventures with an atmosphere of uncluttered authenticity no longer present at better-trodden historical locations. A trip to Yemen is considered an experience of a way of life long since lost to the modern world, a dream destination of unusual record, a very rich mixture of archaeological, cultural, traditional arts, natural and historical heritage, a picture of a different age: Discover the timeless history and intrigue of faces from 1001 nights.

Extractions: CIES Contacts Plowed fields of the "Husn al-Arus" butte in the Yemini Highlands. Photo courtesy of Daniel Varisco. Situated in the southwest of the Arabian Peninsula, the Republic of Yemen has considerable variation in its physical landscape and climatic conditions, ranging from the Rub al-Khali (or "Empty Quarter") desert region, to fertile mountains and plateaus fed by twice-yearly monsoons. Yemen's remarkable architecture including palaces, mosques, and multi-storied mud and brick houses is one of the country's most celebrated characteristics. The strait of Bab el Mandeb, located at Yemen's southwestern tip, links the Red Sea with the Indian Ocean. The country's ancient kingdoms, built on the spice and incense trades, used its strategic ports in concert with overland camel caravans to give Yemen a historically important role in Middle Eastern trade. The coastal town of Al Mukha became a major force in the coffee trade, and it is from there that the word "mocha" was derived and applied to coffee.

Extractions: The main topic of interest lately has been political and economic reform in the Arab World and the Greater Middle East. They were even brought up at the G-8 Summit, and Yemen expressed reservations concerning the plan because it (Yemen) has long since started political and economic reforms of its own. The main objection to the initiatives is not the matter of reform, but that most proposals fail to give due attention to the Arab-Israeli dispute, without which any attempt at reform in the region will remain just a dream. Moreover, the most important reform here is that of the economy, to which many changes could be made. Poverty and underdevelopment are the main causes of instability and insecurity for one and all countries in the region.... [ Full Story Other Front Page News Items:

Adult rural women in Yemen will be taught literacy skills through the writing and documenting of their own poetry and that of other women in their community. A cultural resource that is valued locally and nationally will be utilized to teach rural women a potentially empowering skill that is not currently perceived by them as relevant to their lives. The project will be community driven from the planning stages, and it has the support of Ministry of Education officials in Yemen.
