Disputation Literature in the Near East and Beyond
Enrique Jiménez, Catherine Mittermayer
Disputation literature is a type of text in which usually two non-human entities (such as trees and animals) vie over their respective merits in a series of elaborate, flowery speeches. Known in virtually every Middle Eastern culture from Antiquity to the present day, it represents one of the most enduring genres in world literature. The present volume collects over twenty contributions on disputation literature from various regions and times.
