Many in the Arab world saw the prize as somewhat ironic, not least because the work for which Mahfouz received the prize had been published at least three decades earlier. In spite of millions 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. Mahfouz has written some 40 novels and short story collections, 30 screenplays, and many plays. "Zaabalawi!" he said, frowning in concentration, "You need him? God be with you, for who knows, I Zaabalawi, where you are?" "Doesn't he visit you?" I asked eagerly. "He visited me some time ago. He might well come now; on the other hand I mightn't see him till death!" I gave an audible sigh and asked: "What made him like that?"

24. Naguib Mahfouz A Nobel for the Arab nation. http://almashriq.hiof.no/egypt/900/920/naguib_mahfouz/nobel_price/

A Nobel for the Arab Nation ... was won by Egyptian novelist and short-story writer Naguib Mahfouz, chronicler of enduring human values from pharaonic Thebes to modern Cairo's back alleys. On the following pages are Larry Luxner's interview with Mahfouz, and Edward Fox's appreciation of his work After I had searched nearly an hour in Cairo's Khan al-Khalili bazaar for the legendary Zuqaq al-Midaq - the eponym of Naguib Mahfouz s most popular novel, Midaa, Alley - a young Egyptian noticed the Mahfouz paperbacks I was carrying and, in near-perfect English, asked me if I really expected to find the famous street. "Lately, many people are looking for Zuqaq al-Midaq,'' he said, "but the real Midaq exists only in their minds." After some polite conversation, however, Muhammad pointed out the tiny winding street that had - since the novel's publication - come to be known as Zuqaq al-Midaq. Once inside the narrow passage where Mahfouz used to walk daily, I spotted many shopkeepers who could easily have passed for Abbas the barber, Uncle Kamil the candy-seller, Kirsha the cafe-owner and other inhabitants of Mahfouz's fictional alley. The alley is in the heart of the ancient Jamaliyya quarter of Cairo, where Mahfouz was born and spent his childhood and where much of his best work is set. His attachment to the quarter is still strong, decades after leaving it for the suburbs, but at 77he laments that he is not able to visit it as often as he used to. The great boulevardier has cut down on the long walks for which he was famous; now he goes mainly to the Ali Baba Cafe on Thursday nights, often in a car, to see his old friends. Last December, the writer's frail health prevented him from traveling to Stockholm to receive personally the 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature: His two daughters accepted the award in his name.

Week in Photos Search the Globe: Today Yesterday NAGUIB MAHFOUZ CREATES A MYTHIC HISTORY Author: By Richard Dyer, Globe Staff Date: Friday, April 8, 1994 Page: Section: LIVING When the Egyptian novelist Naguib Mahfouz won the Nobel Prize in 1988, his work had an audience of millions of readers, almost none of them in America. Since the prize, however, Doubleday has published 16 of Mahfouz's books in English translation still only a fraction of his output, since he has written nearly 50 books. The "Cairo Trilogy," the early novels that established Mahfouz's reputation, won loyal readers here and sold more than 250,000 copies. The trilogy was a meticulous depiction of a specific place and time; it was written on the models of the major English, French and Russian novels of the 19th century. But it was in no sense a derivative work; what was original about it was the myth, mystery and immemorial history that informed the unfolding account of daily events. In a way, "The Harafish," now translated for the first time, is a complement to the "Cairo Trilogy," or the "Cairo Trilogy" turned inside out. It too is a novel about generations of a family living in an alley in an unspecified city, presumably Cairo. But this time there is none of the

29. Naguib Mahfouz - Biography naguib mahfouz – Biography. Born in Cairo in 1911, naguib mahfouz began writing when he was seventeen. His first novel was published http://www.nobel.se/literature/laureates/1988/mahfouz-bio.html

Born in Cairo in 1911, Naguib Mahfouz began writing when he was seventeen. His first novel was published in 1939 and ten more were written before the Egyptian Revolution of July 1952, when he stopped writing for several years. One novel was republished in 1953, however, and the appearance of the Cairo Triology, Bayn al Qasrayn, Qasr al Shawq, Sukkariya (Between-the-Palaces, Palace of Longing, Sugarhouse) in 1957 made him famous throughout the Arab world as a depictor of traditional urban life. With The Children of Gebelawi (1959), he began writing again, in a new vein that frequently concealed political judgements under allegory and symbolism. Works of this second period include the novels, The Thief and the Dogs Autumn Quail Small Talk on the Nile (1966), and Miramar (1967), as well as several collections of short stories. Until 1972, Mahfouz was employed as a civil servant, first in the Ministry of Mortmain Endowments, then as Director of Censorship in the Bureau of Art, as Director of the Foundation for the Support of the Cinema, and, finally, as consultant on Cultural Affairs to the Ministry of Culture. The years since his retirement from the Egyptian bureaucracy have seen an outburst of further creativity, much of it experimental. He is now the author of no fewer than thirty novels, more than a hundred short stories, and more than two hundred articles. Half of his novels have been made into films which have circulated throughout the Arabic-speaking world. In Egypt, each new publication is regarded as a major cultural event and his name is inevitably among the first mentioned in any literary discussion from Gibraltar to the Gulf.

He was born in Cairo and received his early education in a Koranic primary school. In his teens he suffered a religious crisis brought on by the reading of Darwin. After taking a degree in philosophy in Cairo, he opted for a literary career, earning his living as a civil servant, first in the Ministry of Religious Endowments, later as a film censor in the Ministry of Culture. Mahfouz's literary career falls into a series of clearly marked periods, separated by long silences provoked by personal or political crises. After three historical novels set in ancient Egypt, conceived as the beginning of a whole series, he changed course and wrote five novels concerned with the social problems of ordinary people in contemporary Cairo, including Midaq Alley (1947; trans. 1966) and The Beginning and the End (1949; trans. 1985). Then, in The Cairo Trilogy, which he called 'a history of my country and of myself', he follows the fortunes of a family through three generations: Palace Walk (1956; trans. 1990), Palace of Desire (1957; trans. 1991) and Sugar Street (1957; trans. 1992).

While he studied, he wrote for professional journals, and after graduating he started writing fictions and published more than 80 short stories in less than 6 years. While working at the Ministry of Religious Affairs from 1939 to 1954, he published three volumes of Pharaonic novels. After that he started writing novels of social realism, as well as screenplays for films. Mahfouz writes in strict Modern Standard Arabic , even dialogs. His style is clear-cut, mainly with stories from everyday life, without much moralizing lectures, free from ideology and seldom with much use of symbolism. Mahfouz's aim with writing is to tell a good story, to preserve a moment in history and to present true people for readers in a distant future. But Mahfouz have experimented with more complex styles and symbolism, beginning in the 1960s but this production is not counted among his best and has also only managed to reach only a small audience.

Mahfouz, Naguib, Naguib Mahfouz on his daily walk through Cairo, 1988 also spelled NAJIB MAHFUZ (b. Dec. 11, 1911, Cairo, Egypt), Egyptian novelist and screenplay writer who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1988, the first Arabic writer to be so honoured. The son of a civil servant, Mahfouz attended Cairo University and worked in the cultural section of the Egyptian civil service from 1934 until his retirement in 1971. His early novels, such as Radubis (1943; "Radobis"), were set in ancient Egypt, but he had turned to describing modern Egyptian society by the time he began his major work, Al- Thulathiyya (1956-57), known as The Cairo Trilogy. Its three novels depict the lives of three generations of different families in Cairo from World War I until after the 1952 military coup that overthrew King Farouk. The trilogy provides a penetrating overview of 20th-century Egyptian thought, attitudes, and social change. In subsequent works Mahfouz offered critical views of the old Egyptian monarchy, British colonialism, and contemporary Egypt. Several of his more notable novels deal with social issues involving women and political prisoners. His novel Awlad haratina Children of the Alley ) was banned in Egypt for a time because of its controversial treatment of religion and its use of characters based on Muhammad, Moses, and other figures. His other better-known novels include

SEHR, volume 5, issue 1: Contested Polities Updated 8 February 1996 book review multiplying mahfouz Rasheed El-Enany, Naguib Mahfouz: The Pursuit of Meaning (New York: Routledge, 1993). Elliott Colla In this study of Naguib Mahfouz's literary corpus, Rasheed El-Enany argues that Mahfouz is the Arab world's most important novelist not simply because of the influence of his novels of the 1950s and 1960s, but also because his later novels, relatively ignored by contemporary critics, have continued to develop the Arabic novel in equally exciting ways. In other words, he asserts that Mahfouz's relevance and standing are not due simply to the works he produced fifty, forty, or even twenty-five years ago, but rather to the fact that the Nobel author has continued to press forward, pulling Arabic literature in his wake. To support this, El-Enany gives an overview of Naguib Mahfouz's oeuvre, from his earliest "historical romances" to his realist, naturalist, and modernist novels. El-Enany then goes on to make the convincing claim that Mahfouz's novels from the 1970s onward represent a return to forms drawn from classical Arabic literature. The strength of this book is that El-Enany has assembled a thoughtful overview of Mahfouz's novels, including within it many books that have usually not been the focus of critical studies. Moreover, he is careful to avoid repeating readings: when El-Enany deals with works that have received considerable critical attention, he defers to previous studies of those works, thus freeing himself to concentrate on Mahfouz's more recent production. The result is that El-Enany manages to sketch a smooth narrative of the career of the Egyptian novelist, one that starts with the early works (of the 1940s), hits its stride with
