The role of journalism in Egypt is examined as a catalyst for the evolution of modern Arabic literature, tracing its journey from the mid-nineteenth century to today. Kendall highlights the significance of independent and often dissident journals, which served as vital platforms for innovative literary expression. These publications not only fostered creativity but also played a crucial role in transitioning Arabic literature into the post-modern era, reshaping the literary landscape in Egypt over recent decades.
