Sobre este artículo
New York, NY: Anchor Books, 1989. Soft cover. As New. 8vo - over 7? - 9?" tall. Anchor Books, New York; First Published 1969. Reissue edition 1989, 47th Printing. Trade Paperback As New. Bright, glossy wrappers, very clean, completely unmarked, solid binding. An account of the author's two-year stay in the tiny rural village of El Nahra in southern Iraq. To help her anthropologist husband gather data, Mrs. Fernea agreed to dress only in the all-enveloping black veils of the woke of the harem. Her daily life was spent with the women of the town. In this polygamous society there was no communication between the sexes--although she did share a mud brick cottage with her husband. This is a unique insight into a part of Middle Eastern life seldom seen by the West--a life of the women who have no outwardly apparent role in society, but whose thoughts and ideas are now emerging to help shape modern Middle Eastern society. 8 x 5 inches. 357 pages. Glossary of Arabic Terms. Index. 1989, Anchor Books, New York.
